VB code not working with Vista

[Rene T]

I have a database that I'm trying to run on a Vista machine (it runs on some
w/vista) and I'm having the following problem:
When I click the button to open the report, nothing happens. It is as if
the references aren't selected, but they are. I can't even open the report
in design view. The underlying query works fine and reports w/o any VB
procedures work fine. Any advice?

Can you open the report in design mode? Is a printer installed?

I can't open the report in design mode and a printer is installed. I get no
error message when I try to open in print preview or design mode, just no
response.
Thanks for your input!

hi Rene,

Do you use any special ActiveX control in this report? Is it installed
on your computer?
Try opening the report with your AV turned off, some of them may block it.

Otherwise it may be corruption. Create a new database file and try to
import the report. If this doesn't work, then I think you rebuild this
report.

Thanks for your help. I'll try the AV and go from there.
