Why cant I step through

[compdrmt]

I used to use Access quite a bit but eventualy got so frustrated with the limitations of the IDE that I switched entirely to VB with access only to hold the data.

Now I am working on a project done entirely in Acces and I am trying to keep it that way. The question I have is this

I have Access 2k3 When I have some miinor thing wrong in code I would expect that access would break to the point of the error so I could see what is up. instead it just does nothing. The whole function does not even get called. What options do i have to set or what could be wrong to cause this behavior. I seem to remeber this used to be the expected behavior in Access of old

Thanks

In any code module

Tools|Options|General tab. Set the error Handling to your requirements.

This is currently set to break on all errors shouldn't that do it ?

That should do it.

Have you tried manually setting a breakpoint in your code and then stepping through to see what happens as the code executes?
