Hi
I ahve small Db with equipment inventory made in Access 200
now using 2003. everything is ok - switchboard works etc
until I click on a "preview report" on the swithcboard
commands which should just open a report prior to printing.
At this point access closes and I am left looking at the XP
Pro desktop :-(

any clues??

any help appreciated.

ps - I can open the tables and forms from the switchboard
with no problem
 
First thing to try, is to uncheck the boxes under:
Tools | Options | General | Name AutoCorrect.
Then compact your database:
Tools | Database Utilities | Compact

For details of why, see:
