Microsoft 2007 crashing on a Access 2003 form.

[Lance Scott]

Has anyone experienced a problem with Access 2003 forms which contain
another subform causing the Access application to crash when opened with
Access 2007?

Lance, there are several possible issues that could trigger this.

Examples:
- A decompile would certainly be worth while.
- Name AutoCorrect can cause this kind of problem.
- Programmatically assigning the Control Source of controls.
- A subform control where LinkMasterFields or LinkChildFields refers to an
AccessObject (i.e. a field, not a control)

Any of these apply?

If you're using Visual Sourcesafe to create the db, there are some
demonstrated corruption issues with an Access 2003 db being opened in Access
2007. The problem has manifested itself as "out of memory" errors when
opening some forms. I can provide further info if these details apply.
