I have an Access with Visual Basic program that creates a database for each case. When a user clicked a button to run a function in the database, an error popped up: “File not found: c:\Users\(user id)\AppData\Local\Temp\VB96F2/tmp”

Does anyone know what kind of file this is? I did not have this problem until the last month or so.

Thanks,

Bill

Click to expand...

The last part of the file name "/tmp" is wrong.
If it ended something like "\somefilename.tmp" then it would be looking for a temp file.

The fact that it ends with "/tmp" sounds like it is just a coding error

Can you post the code behind the button and anything else it depends on

My bad. The ending in .tmp. The program code has no references to .tmp files.

I enclosed an image of the error message. The blank part after users\ is a user id that I whited out and did not want posted.

Thanks for your response and thanks if you can help anymore.

Bill

Please show us the actual code involved and the message you get.
To get more help I suggest you post a copy of the database as a zip file ---BUT remove confidential info, and supply just a few records to highlight the issue.
You can change a few names to Porky Pig, John Doe or Heeza Payne etc.
