xp mde on 2003

[jouj]

Hi,
I'm using MS Access XP to develop my application.
I changed some code (nothing important), and I've made a new .mde file.
Some users run The new .mde file on MS Access 2003.
ONLY ON Office 2003, the application quits sometimes, after the changes I've
made. (selecting a value from a combo box, outputting as a .snp)

What should I advise my users?(an SP for 2003 maybe??)
I don't want to develop on 2003.
Thanks in advance
jouj

Just to besure that everything is compiled correctly, try compacting and
compiling in XP just before distributing the front-end to each workstation.
Then on the 2003 workstations. open a standard module or form module again
in Design View, and compile again. That may stop your problem since the
VBE.dll is different in the 2 versions.

Dear Arvin,
I did what you proposed:
1-Compacted and Compiled it on XP ==> everything is fine.
2-Compiled it on 2003. no Errors: the problem persists.

Any other solution??

I'd make sure you have all the service packs and updates installed on
your XP version, though I don't think that is actually the problem.

Next, I'd recommend that you try to nail down the specific action(s)
that causes this problem. Do you have error handling code in all your
subs? If not, that may explain the immediate "close downs". Adding
error handling code could help you troubleshoot the issue. Just my 2
cents. -HK
