strange error

[Guest]

I have programmed an Access 2k database on an XP computer
with Access 2002. Since it is a Access 2k databse, I'm now
trying to run it on several users' computers that have
Windows 98 and Access 2k. However, when loading one of the
forms, I get the following error message (or a similar
one) on every computer:

MSACCESS caused an invalid page fault in
module MSACCESS.EXE at 017f:30088c26.
Registers:

This error causes Access to crash. However, it strangely
disappears if I insert a breakpoint into the OnCurrent
code and does not reapear for the entire Access session,
even after I remove the breakpoint.

Please help. There are too many Win 98/Access 2k computers
here for this not to work.

The form seems to be corrupt. I would try decompiling:

http://www.mvps.org/access/bugs/bugs0008.htm

and recompiling on a Win 98 machine. If that works, destribute the file from
there. If not, try rebuilding the form.

Right on, that did it. Thanks a bunch.

Follow-up question: The original database on my laptop
(with win XP and Access 2002) still opens flawlessly, I
transferred the database directly onto the other
computer, and I'm sure it didn't get corrupted in the
transfer process (because I transferred it twice and it
came back with the same error). Does that set any bad
precedent for my master copy of the database front-end?

Thanks a lot again
