Blank Access window with VBE call

[Dave Dawson]

When I do alt-f11 to get the VBE in Access 2003 on XP Pro I get a blank
Access window that won't go away. Why?

It seems that every day with Office 2003 and XP Pro is an adventure. ;-)

Thanks,
Dave

Mybe the Immidiate window takes all of the space and it covers the code, run
the mouse pointer to the top and see if you can drug it down to get a split
between the code and the Immidiate window.

No, the Editor window is fine. Has all it's panes where they should be.
This is an Access window...just as if I had launched Access again.

Check if you got a autokeys macro, and a different command for Alt+F11

It appears to have been an add-in named Code_Crafter that was loading on
start-up that was causing the problem.

Thanks,

I'm not seeing that. Alt+F11 gives me a code window, the same as Ctrl+G, in
the last 3 versions of Access. The difference being that Ctrl+G focuses on
the Immediate (Debug) Window. If it's blank (i.e. the code window itself
doesn't come up, just the empty IDE) then a project hasn't been loaded into
memory during that session. Look on the left and open a code window from a
module or one of the forms.
