You can't assign a value to this object

[plcman]

Hi

I have a database that works fine on the development machine, however when I transfer it to the users machine I get the following.

You can't assign a value to this object

I am assigning a value to a field on a form in the onload event. I have the reference to DAO3.6 inplace.

Any ideas?

Is the database on a server?

Does the developement machine have a DSN to that server that the other machine does not?

Does the client PC application have the proper library references?

Hi

The database is not on a server, it is on an Xp Sp2 machine.
If i install the DB on the user machine with the records from the development machine inplace it works ok, if I delete all the records, to start afresh, i get this error. I am able to work around this, but would like to know what causes it.

Post the code where this happens, and tell us which line number the error occurs on.
