Hi
I'm using an old access 97 database that was provided with MSAccess Runtime. Most of the functions(forms, reports) of this database work with the exception of doing updates to the records. Everytime that we tried to use this "update" we get a "Run-time Error 2473". I think this database is secured with password becuase the extension of the databases are xxx.lma, xxxx.mdw. Have no idea how to correct this problem? We have tried to replicate the database but no luck. The installation of setup disk does not work under Win2000 or WinXP. Appreciate anyone who can help me out, any suggestions out
there. Here is the syntax on the error

Run-time Error 2473

The expression on open you entered as the event property
setting produced an errror: Compile error

Possible Causes:
The expression doesn't result in the name of a
macro, the name of a user-defined function, or
[Event Procedures]

Thanks in advance for your assistance

J.




 
There is a module or function that runs when the form is opened. Somehow, it got corrupted or deleted and everytime you open the form Access tries to run the module or function with the On Open Event. Have you tried to compact and repair the database?
