When I move my ms access database to a new machine i get a message
saying that the event proceedure on mousedown etc bla bla bla and
the date fields do not populate. When I return to the pc i built the
damn thing on it works like a dream!

Anyone got any ideas?


Cheers
 
The actual error message may be important. What is "bla bla bla", and what
causes the message to appear (opening the database, opening a form, clicking
a button, etc.)? You could start by checking references, but that's a guess
based on very little information. This link has more about that:

By the way, cross post if you must (one message to several groups), but do
not multi-post (identical message to each of several groups).

Click to expand...

If I answered with "you could analyze what is happening and bla bla bla",
you'd tell me I hadn't helped. Would you be offended if I said you haven't
helped us to help you?

Clarify, with precise and concise details of what you have, what you are
doing, exact error messages... and, you should be able to go into Tools |
Options, set "Break on All Errors" and even tell us the exact line of code
that is causing the error message.

That will, I suspect, be a good deal easier than finding The Access Psychics
Newsgroup.
