Unrecognised command in Win2000 but not in Win98

My access 2000 project was written on a win 98 machine and has a macro with
a
condition

DateValue(FileD ateTime("c:\dat abase\full22.tx t"))<Date()

This was written in expression builder.

On the Win 98 machine all works fine. When using same datbase on a Win 2000
machine this
condition fails and generates message "unrecognis ed function....... .."

It appears to be the filedatetime section that is not working. In the
immediate pane of the VB code section of access on the win2000
machine the expression works fine. It seems to just be a problem when used
as a macro condition.

Has anyone got any ideas how to resolve the problem

Many Thanks

Correction to my previous post. The actual error message is "The expression
you entered has a function name that db4 can't find"
Access version is 2000.

Any clues??

Hello, I have to read/write in the UART to transfer bytes through the serial port. I use Visual C++ 6 and Win2000. When I used Win98, the problem was easy : the functions _inp and _outp (or the file port95nt.dll) allow to read/write on the UART. But these functions (or this DLL) do not work... If anyone knows how to have the rights to access the UART with Win2000 or the functions to use in VC++, please help me !
