Decompile results in "A module is not a valid type"

[karmahum]

Hello all...

In an effort to increase the performance of my database, I used the decompile feature in 97 to, well, decompile the database.

I have used the feature before with no problems. However, this time it created multiple problems.

Namely, when I try to complile the database I get and error that states "A module is not a valid type".

Specifically it appears to be refering to the aspects of the database that incorrporate the Calender Control created by Stephan Laben.

I have tried removing the references and replacing them, all to no help.

I appears that I may have destroyed the database.

Any ideas.

Thanks.

Try importing everything into a new blank db

 

[karmahum]

I tried that...

...with no success. The same error(s) persist to the new mdb container.

Any other ideas?

I might have to resort to the backup version, however, that does not resolve my performance issue (with the database ). Something about this database just doesn't want to be decompiled.

Problem is with Calender Class

After some research it appears that the Calender Class code that I am using is the source of the problem.

I took the calender code and decompiled it by itself and the same problem arose.

Interesting...

is it possible to remove the offending module before
decompiling,then add the module and re compile

your db size will increase slighty but you should still
acheive db performance increase

it may mean you have to comment out any references
to functions and variables stored in that module

just a thought that may help
