Hi everyone
I am an accountant and a self taught Access programmer. I have written a number of applications many many moons ago using Access 2 and bundled these with a runtime. I have been using these without any problem until Window Vista and subsequent Windows arrived. I tried to convert to later editions of Access (Access 7) by firstly converting to Access 2000 and then Access 7 accdb format but I seem to loose quite a few functionalities, mainly due mistranslation of expressions in queries etc. and also wherever I have used "Event Procedures" in the old access for instance in command buttons, the equivalent VBA statement does not do the same thing. Any suggestions?
 
Many thanks for your comprehensive reply to my query, very kind. I shall take your advice on board.
Best wishes
