Runtime Error

Every time I try to enter an event or access the code builder I get the
following message:
Runtime Error!
Program: C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office11\MSACCESS.EXE

Abnormal program termination

Any ideas on how to correct this?

Thanks.
 
I tried the compact/repair with no change.

How do you decompile? I can't get into the code builder. If I go to an
event and click on the ..., before I can do anything else, I get the error
and Access shuts down.
 
To decompile, open the mdb like this:
"c:\program file\path\to\msaccess.exe" "c:\path\to\myDb.mdb" /decompile

Thanks for the information.

I tried that but it still is giving me the same error message.
 
Is this only happening on this database? If not, it's probably an Access
issue. If it is and you've imported the db objects into a new db, one of the
objects might be corrupt.

There is a free tool that will perform a rebuild operation, which
essentially saves every object as text and then recreates them from text.
This has been known to repair corrupted mdb's. You can find it here:

I created a new database. I am still getting the error.

Just to let you know, I moved to another computer and recreated the database.
I have not received the error since.

I guess I'll be rebuilding a computer in the near future.

Thanks for all of your help.
