Hi, I have something rather strange going on:

If I double-click on any .accdb to open, I end up getting a DDE time-out error. Doesn't matter if the files are local or on a server, split or one piece.

If I start Access 2007 first and then 'file open' the same .accdb or any other .accdb, they open without error.

If I double-click on any .accde, they open fine without error.

This started happening several days ago and as far as I know,
nothing has changed.

Any ideas as to what may have happened where I cannot double-click on an .accdb to open it?

Thanks,

dRahme

 
Never Mind.

Sometimes it works wonders if you shut down the PC and restart it.
 

Ah yes. The old help desk standby:
"Did you try re-booting?"
