Run-Time Version of Access 2003 Problems

I must admit, I'm pretty new at database design, but I have tried really hard to keep standardized naming and relationships as well as asking questions about anything I'm not sure of. I built a database that works perfectly on my computer, but when I tried to use it on the end user's computer today it didn't work very well at all. She has the Access 2003 run-time version installed. When I tried to navigate using any of the buttons coded with macros, I either got errors that shut the application or brought me back to the form or report I was trying to exit.

Any ideas on why something could work so well on my machine, but not on hers? I even used this as a test on my machine to run the database in the runtime version on my computer:

"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\OFFICE11\MSACCESS.EXE" /runtime "drive:\path\file_name"

It worked fine for me in the runtime version on my computer, but failed miserably on the other user's computer. Is there any way she doesn't have the right files for VBA or perhaps the update to Jet Engine 4.0 version 8 would help?

Any help would be greatly appreciated-
Thanks!
