Navigation Control, BrowseTo randomly errors

[1DMF]

Hi,

I am having major problems with a Navigation Control.

I have on the main form 'Check_Docs' the following UpdateView routine...

Public Sub UpdateView(Optional ByVal bClear As Boolean = False)
    
On Error GoTo err_updateview

    Me.EmailInfo = Null
    
    If bClear Then
        If Not (oFileWatcher Is Nothing) Then
            oFileWatcher.CancelWatcher = True
        End If
        Set oFileWatcher = Nothing
        Me.SetFocus
        DoCmd.BrowseTo acBrowseToForm, "Emails_Log_Subform", "Check_Docs.Nav_Subform"
    End If
    
    
exit_updateview:

    Me.Refresh
    Exit Sub

err_updateview:
    MsgBox "Error in Check_Docs_UpdateView : " & Err.Description
    Resume exit_updateview
    
End Sub

This works 9/10 but occasionally I get the following error

The macro action BrowseTo requires a valid Path argument. A valid Path argument is of the form: MainForm1.Subform1>Form1.Subform1

Why? Either the BrowseTo syntax is right or it's wrong, how can it be wrong only occasionally?

I know I'm not using a chevron in my path "Check_Docs.Nav_Subform", I don't quite understand the syntax with the chevron, what is it asking for?

The mainform is 'Check_Docs' the Navigation control is 'Nav_Subform, their isn't any more child depth to the control, what would come after any potential chevron?

The control I wish to auto load / navigate to (form linked to the specific nav button - 'Navigation Target Name') is 'Emails_Log_Subform'

Help understanding why this happens randomly and the potential cause is appreciated.

Well I gave the button control on the Navigation control the same name as the form being used as the Navigation Target Name and the error hasn't happened again?

Very odd!
