There is no object in this control 1

[Trob70]

I have a large msaccess program that has been running for many years..
The office has 10 computers running this program


Recently.
A computer has been replaced win10 64 bit
office 365

When i run the program i get a message

There is no object in this control ... BUT no detail .. just a simple message box

If i click Ok the program then loads and runs ok.

I have checked all vba references and there are none showing missing

??Is there any way i can intercept this error and find exactly what is causing this message

Appreciate any advice


Thanks

Andy,

I ?? thought i had a pretty good look but could not find an exact solution..

If i got this error after the program loads.. i would have no problem.

But this error comes up while loading...

Can you run your Access app on the (new?) win10 64 bit office 365 computer?
Usually, when app crashes, it would show you the line of VBA code that causes the issue...

Andy,

The error only happens when it is run on the new win10 64 bit office 365 computer

The error comes up when loading the program .. and does not show any line numbers..

I have put a msgbox on the first line of the opening form (on load) to see if the error
comes up when loading the form..

BUT.. the error comes up before the on load in the form comes up. no line number errors just a simple message box
(no detail)

I have tried reregisting .ocx's etc....pretty well tried everything i could think of.

Maybe i will have to live with this message.. it's only on this one machine.

But i am a little worried when other machines are upgraded i will have the same problem

Just had an idea !!!

I setup a dummy form with nothing on it and altered the startup to be this dummy form.
Then did a command button to the original startup form on the dummy form.

The problem has gone away..

No idea why

But i will just live with it.. Probably just put a ?? welcome message in the dummy form

If there are any ideas of why this worked.. would appeciate any comment

Since you stated "I have tried reregisting .ocx's etc..." I expect this is an issue 32 vs 64 bit ocx's.

Yes i am preety sure this is the problem

My computer (at the moment) is 32 bit

The new computer is 64bit

I am getting a new computer and it will be 64 bit

What is the "bitness" of your 365?
WIN 10 64bit can still run 32 bit Access/Office.

Jedraw

The 365 is 64 bit.

The office installed is 64 bit

I tried copying 32bit ocx's from my computer and putting in wow564
but did not work. had to copy an ocx from another 64 bit computer

The problem i had was only with 1 program... all other programs seem ok
