"Error accessing file. Network connection may have been lost"
When trying to open a form in my DB, I get this error.
Everything worked fine, but then I pasted a form from another DB into the current DB and now I get this error. This procedure used to work, but I have just changed my computer - and on the new one I get this error. I am using A2K on both PCs but the new one has XP as opposed to Win2K on the old. There is no explanation in the help. Any suggestions? -- Diane |

See this KB article describing the nasty bug that has bitten you: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;[LN];304548 Office 2000 SP3 fixes the bug, but that won't repair your corrupted database. You'll have to resort to a backup, or else try importing all objects to a new database -- some objects probably won't import, and you'll have to recreate them from scratch. When you do import the objects, unless you've applied the service pack, it is *crucial* that you compile and save the project before closing the database. -- Dirk Goldgar, MS Access MVP www.datagnostics.com (please reply to the newsgroup) |

"Error accessing file. Network connection may have been lost"
Problem solved! Thanks.
I thought scanning for Windows updates would prompt me to install Service Packs on all MS-software... I had wondered though why I had not been asked to do so. How can I do a total scan of all MS-software for possible updates? -- Diane "Dirk Goldgar" wrote: "DianePDavies" wrote in message When trying to open a form in my DB, I get this error.

I think something like that will be coming someday soon, but for now you would do well to visit http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/of...e/default.aspx (if you haven't already) to make sure that your Microsoft Office programs, at least, are up to date. -- Dirk Goldgar, MS Access MVP www.datagnostics.com (please reply to the newsgroup) |
