Step by step it works but...

[raulcobo]

Hello to all:
I have a program made in VB and Access. I have a very rare problem and
I don´t know how to solving it. When I execute it, the program fails
(does not leave any message error. I know that it fails because it
does not update the registries of the database), however, if I execute
it step by step, the program works perfectly. Somebody knows where the
problem can be? Thank you very much for your attention and sorry for
my bad english.

Hi Raul,

Are you using the same configuration in both cases? That is, are you using
the Debug configuration when you run the app without debugging. If it is not
the same, maybe there is something different in both configurations, or some
conditional statements using #If DEBUG

Also, a way to solve this is putting some messageboxes in your code to guess
the code flow. At some point the statement which updates the database is not
reached, or it fails silently.

It sounds to me like you may have a timing issue. When you step
through the program it is giving the program more time to complete the
access execution. Try throwing in a vew DoEvents to help things finish
up.
