Good day all,
I imagine this is a common problem but cannot find anything
online with what I am hoping is a simple answer. I've been developing this application in AccessXP/2003 and yesterday I was upgraded to Access 2007. Actually my whole PC was swapped out for a new one in case that is relevant, but i'm still using Windows XP.
Anyway, none of the buttons on the form trigger anything, they're just dead. Doesn't fire off any events at all. So, I did save as in the 2007 format to see if that would fix the problem but no joy. Looked at the references and all seems to be in order but to be honest not sure if I would recognise if soemthign was amiss. Checked with the Refs in the previous version and all seem to be there so.....?

Like I say i'm hoping this is a quick fix solution via the flip of a switch so if anyone has any pointers please do advise.

Thanks,
Mitch....
 
2007 will not run code unless the db is stored in a trusted location, or code has been explicitly enabled. Office Button/Access Options/Trust Center.
 
Aw thats great. Worked perfectly, I guess i'm going to have to spend some time messing with the tool layout in order to familiarse myself with 2007.

Thanks again.
 
No problemo; the whole ribbon thing can be very confusing to those of us used to the old menu structure. Apparently new users find it easier.
