I am running Windows 10 and Access 2010. Windows is updated as of yesterday, 12-7-23.
I have an accde version of my software that performs normally except for closing down.
The shutdown command is docmd.quit after closing the current form.
The oddity:
If I run the program, via a shortcut on the desktop, from a folder on a network drive access does not close. Instead I get a grey window that eventually closes after numerous clicks on the close (X) button.
Running a copy of the software from the "C:\Access Front End" folder, again via a shortcut, Access shuts down normally.
The shortcuts are both generated by windows with the "Run" property changed to "Minimized"
The same software in accdb format closes normally in both scenarios.
Obviously the solution is to house the software on the local machine but, why is it so?
