Hi, I'm trying to create a macro for my database that will back up the data
tables (or the entire database) as the database is being shut down.
When I put RunCommand into a macro, though, and select "Backup", I get the
error message:
"The command or action "Backup isn't available now.
* You may be in a read-only database or an unconverted database from and
earlier version of Microsoft Office Access.
* The type of object the action applies to isn't currently selected or isn't
in the active view.
Uuse on those commands and macro actions that are currently available for
this database."
I assume it's the second * that it's having trouble with in my case, but
there doesn't seem to be a place to put in arguments for this command.
