By default, A365 updates are downloaded automatically without any intervention. That could be good or bad, if you compare it with for example A2019 where the software is fixed. I would expect that an A2019 environment would be more stable, because updates are controlled.

Are you referring to the Access Runtime that comes with Microsoft 365? Is this something fixed or does it get updated? Would you use A365 for development and the generic Runtime, or use a perpetual license like A21 and I guess the same generic Runtime? I guess if you use A365 the developing...

Is it true to say that you can develop with A365 and use the generic A365 Runtime?

So is there only one Runtime for A19-A24?

Am I correct to assume that the latest perpetual version of Access is 2021? If yes, is another version expected in 2024? At present I am using A13 for development and A13 Runtime for deployment. I understand that Microsoft is pushing O365, which I have and have done development using A365. I...

After many changes I managed to convert my old (1997) Access application from 32bit to 64bit. It seems to be running well under 64bit, but will have a eye out for any problems. For anyone looking to go through the same exercise, I would suggest viewing the first two videos suggested in #2...

I managed to complete the conversion of my product and it appears to work. I was not able to find the following APIs and I simply added a "PtrSafe" Any ideas? Public Declare Function ezGetFileInfo Lib "msaccess.exe" _ Alias "#56" (FSI As ezFileSelInfo, ByVal fOpen As Integer) As Long...

The reply from Wayne Hello John, Unfortunately the mouse hook is not at all 64-bit compatible. In general, the mouse hook is no longer required, and so the code can usually just be removed. Kind regards Wayne Phillips

Will try to contact Wayne. In the mean time I will remove the code from my software. A good case for not using third party software, which you do not fully understand.

Tried it. Same problem. Will take code out.

Maybe there was a mixup. The actual line is the following line Call CopyMemoryAnsi(MouseHookAddr, NativeCode, Len(NativeCode)) It says Compile error Type mismatch and highlights "MouseHookAddr" I repeat the entire module except the Native Code because it was too big. I...

The goal is to help people on this forum. I made explicit reference to the YouTube video. More importantly the conditional template on arnelgp's post is as simple as it can be. As I mentioned I do not need VBA7 I am close to converting my software and I get a compile error in the following...

Many thanks for clarifying what is needed and what is not. No conditional is needed. I attached the utility from the second YouTube on #2 above. If you type the name of the function you can get the correct format.

I will look at your link, which I thank you for. I do not need to be compatible with earlier versions of A2013, so why do you mention #if VBA7?

AFAIK, LongPtr is not a true Data Type. It merely transforms to Long for a 32bit and to LongLong for a 64bit. I have a feeling that this will not be enough.

The software which I am trying to make 32bit and 64bit compatible is more than 25 years old, but at some point I updated it to A2013, so I do not need to be compatible with anything earlier than A2013. Do I change all Long to LongPtr without investigation? Edit: And add a PtrSafe after Declare?

After doing some reading on the subject converting having both 32bit and 64bit, I arrived at the following and please correct me if I am wrong: 1- I do not have a need to be compatible with previous version of Access 2013, so I do not need to be involved with #VBA7. I will use the following with...

I am trying to make my 32bit Access 2013 work with 64bit. The following works in 32bit: Option Compare Database I tried the following for 64bit compatibility Option Compare Database I receive a problem as seen in the attachment.

Thanks for the input. We are trying to avoid taking a picture and thereafter handling the picture. With the software in #2 above I can call the camera from our application and the picture will appear on the form immediately.
