Hi,
I have windows xp at work and just saved an access database on a flash
drive. I put it in my laptop which has vista and when I try to access forms
to say append(DoCmd.RunCommandcCmdRecordsGoToNew)a record or save a record i
get the above message. "Command or action isn't available now" This
database/forms worked fine on my work computer.
Is this a vista thing or something else.

Help!

It wasn't the laptop it must have been the file when I copied it over. I
think I did a compact and repair on it when i opened it on the laptop which
currupted the file somehow.
Thanks,Lorna
 
I won't forget it again. I've used it before when I imported instead of
linked and didn't have this problem but I'll be very selective in the
future.

Again, thanks for your help.
Lorna
