Making changes to custom libraries cause access 2003 to crash

Hi

I have an application developed in access 2003, which loads custom
libraries(also in access 2k3). The problem is that everytime a library is
modified (a property/function/ whatever) then the development environment
crashes, with the send/don't send box. what can be the reason for this? it's
quite annoying coz it happens everytime a change is made (practically every 5
mins!). I spend my time making backups and restoring rather than coding!

I have access 2k3 pro with the latest updates installed (ver 11.5614.5703)

Thanks,
Jef
 
Whenever you have compiled an MDE (A) that directly references another
compiled MDE (B) that has changed, you must recompile the MDE (A) having the
reference. The effect of making changes to a library MDE are very similar
to breaking compatibility in a ActiveX component.

You might be able to get around this behavior if you get rid of the
reference and the library also happens to be an add-in.
 
Well (A) has indeed been compiled (a beta version u can say). But work is
still being done on it. Modifying (B) would cause access to crash even if
(A) is being opened in development environment. Will try to manipulate the
reference to (B) as yourself and Alex suggested.
Thanks
