Default Error log is being created ... WHERE???!

Hello,

I've been doing some coding and I keepcrashingmy access database. When it crashes it indicates that an error log is being create but I cannot locate this log. I would like to know what made it crash.... Can someone tell me how to locate the error log.

Thank you,

Daniel

It does not tell you anything useful -- it has internal information about
the state of MSACCESS.EXE at the time that program crashed: nothing about
your program or database.

Folder: C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Documents\DrWatson
Files: drwtsn32.log and user.dmp (I think)

I think normally C:\Documents and Settings\All
Users\Documents\DrWatson\drwtsn32.log

It is persistent and grows every time you have an application crash, so good
sys admin practice is to delete it.


For reasons I don't pretend to understand, typical Access Application
(access violation) errors show up as MSACCOPT.EXE errors.
