Hello,
I am new to this so please forgive me. I have created a database where 2 tables are linked. (Header and Items for example) The relationship is setup as follows:
Header is autonumbered, and that field is the primary key.
Items is autonumbered, and that field is its primary key.
Items also has the HeaderNumber as a long integer, representing the foreign key (although I haven't done anything to specifically declare that)
In relationships, I've setup a one (header) to many (items), enforce RI, cascade edits & deletes, only include rows were joined fields are equal. Everything works (worked great) including form(header) & embedded sub-form(items), queries joining both tables, reports, etc.
After splitting the database, all the functionality still works. However, when I either a) go into the design view of a query that contains more than one table, b) go into the relationships screen, or c) run the compact/repair on the front-end, Access gives me the apology (encountered an error and has to shut down) At this point, the relation ships still work and I can add/delete/view, but still can't look at the design of the query, view relationships or compact/repair the database.
Has anyone experienced this? I have Access 2002 saving file as 2000. Any help would be much appreciated, thanks in advance!!
