Error message cr92.mde

[Rita D via AccessMonster.com]

Hello,

I just got an Access db from a co-worker. When I open it, it pops up a start
up form containing two cmd buttons ( form and Reports)
When I click on the Form button, I get this error " Project contains a
missing or broken reference to the file cr92.mde.
I hit ok and it goes into the data entry form.
I'd like to get rid of that error message, but I don't know how to do it.
I thought it was a form problem so I went into the module tab and created a
new one. Then, I went into tools-references and unchecked the one that said
missing: cr92.mde and saved it.
Now, it opens up ok with no problems.
My question to you is, will it affect the DB now that I unchecked that
reference?
Should I create another reference?

Please help

Thanks,

Rita

I just got an Access db from a co-worker.
. . . error " Project contains a

unchecked the one that said missing: cr92.mde
and saved it. Now, it opens up ok with no problems.

that I unchecked that reference?

Probably not, if it hasn't already. But, it's possible that something uses
that reference that you just have not happened upon, so far.

The xxx.mde is a "compiled" Access database, likely procedures that the
author uses in many databases. But they may not have been used in this
database.

Should I create another reference?

It won't do you any good to try to create a reference to it, unless you have
a copy. Have you talked to the person from whom you got the database to see
if they can search for and give you a copy of the .mde? Have you done a file
search on your machine to make certain you don't have a copy?
