Documenter

[Joshann]

I have numerous forms in my database, and I am trying to use the Documenter. It does most of the forms just fine, but it hangs on certain forms and won't ever finish. I have to Ctl+Alt+Del to get out. I have used Compact and Repair database, and it doesn't say there are any errors. I tried re-installing Access 2000, but that didn't work. Does anyone have any ideas?

Not really. For example, one of them that fails has a lot of controls and code, but another one that fails doesn't.

Joshann,

I have never seen this in A97, but in A2000 I have
had the Documenter take an eternity to finish. It
conveys its status on the lower-left status bar. I
have even had to Ctrl-Break to get Access's attention
back.

I seem to recall a post recently where someone had
trouble using the Documenter because it had left a
"temp" table behind.

I guess its just something that we'll have to live
with.

Thank you both. I am using Access 2000. Once it got stuck, I let is sit there for 45 minutes, and the status bar never moved. There are no left over temp tables, but I tried importing all of the objects to a new db anyway, and it didn't help.
