Hello All,

I'm expirencing a strange error that I haven't encountered before. The following are the particulars:

1. Using MS ACCESS 2010.

2. Code compiles clean.

3. Using .mde file on a file server to access the application.

4. When application runs. It works fine on my PC, but getting error on user's Laptop.

5. Operating System: Develoment Workstation; Microsoft Windows XP, User Laptop; Windows 7

6. The following error occurs whenever the laptop user tries to deselect a radio botton on a data entry form:

The expression After Update you entered as the event property setting produced the following error:

* The expression may not result in the name of a macro, the name of a user-defined function, or [Event Procedure].

*There may have been an error evaluating the function, event, or macro.

7. Works perfectly fine in my work environment. I can select and deselect the radio button without any problems.

Has anyone else ever encounter this type of problem? Please advise.

Thanks.
 
Check for missing references. Open any code module. Tools, references. (not 100% sure of path on 2010, I use 2003)

Look for any that are marked as missing:

Uncheck, recheck to fix. May need to bring file that the reference points to over to the end user PC.
 
If the radio button event doesn't include code that relies on any unusual references (and worth checking all references are present as cp suggests anyway):

Sometimes I can get these errors if the user doesn't have modify permissions on the mde. Does the database open with a Read Only message for the user? If so try changing the permissions on the file to Everyone - Modify.

Failing all that open the design mdb on the laptop and deselect the radio button. It should then bug out and show you exactly where it's going wrong and hopefully with a more meaningful message.
