Hello,

I have been working on a database back and forth and home and at work. Today I saved my database from home and onto my computer at work. The database is not opening here at work. It works fine at home. When I attempt to open it, it tells me Access has encountered a problem and needs to close and it closes.

I tried the Compact and Repair.. Access still shuts down on me. I made a new empted database and tried to import the tables and forms into it.. Access still shuts down on me.

It's getting frustrating because I've been trying to get this working for 3 hours now with no success.
 
Under start run, try decompiling the app. Sometimes that will work.

msaccess.exe /decompile "c:\Yourfolder\Yourapp.mdb
