Append Query/VBA problem

Hi all,

I have an application running stand alone on four separate machines to cpature research data.

The main capture form (unbound) captures all details regarding the subject matter and then a button opens an append query which transafers all the captured data to a table.

On 3 of the machines no problem whatsoever, however on one of the machines, if data is entered in a free comment box (memo field in table), I get a run-time error - Invalid Argument.

I have tried copying and pasting the form on that specific machine, even creating a new database and importing all elements from the original, all to no avail. If there are any comments in that box, I get the runtime error.

Can anyone make any suggestions please.

Many thanks


Phil.
 
Are they all running the same version and rollout
Are the references the same on all machines

Hope this helps

Hi guys, thanks for the response, unfortunately I haven't been able to get hold of the machine to test your suggestions, but will let you know how I get on.
