Greetings...
I have some strange problems involving:
Access 2000 (9.0.4402 SR-1)
Windows 2000 Server 5.00.2195 Service Pack 4
Access apps with Oracle/ODBC back ends
One app is a reporting one, and it opens reports (in either
View or Print mode) from a master form. The code opens the
report first in Design mode, applies some changes to DevMode,
DevName, and Mip properties, then reopens the report for
View or Print. Any trouble happens on the last step.
The app usually runs fine for a while (2-5 reports), then
fails to open reports, and generates some strange error
messages:
2759 - The method you tried to invoke on an object failed
2455 - You entered an expression that has an invalid reference
to the property Inputparameters .
2465 - Access can't find the field "" referred to in your exp
2100 - the control or subform is too large for this location
? - The expression On Activate you entered as the event
property setting produced the following error:
Can't execute code in break mode.
? - Unknown Jet Error
All these point to "out of memory".
Note that even after this problem happens, I can still manually
open the reports all the time, and sometimes open them with
the master form and Devmode code. The app seldom crashes
completely, or needs to be closed and restarted.
I religiously repair and decompile all my apps. I haven't
(yet) done the laborious process of creating a new app, and
importing all objects, and relinking all ODBC tables. That
is my last resort. My code also sets objects to Nothing
when finished with them. None of these reports have large
image objects.
Another possibility is trouble with my Windows-level temp
directory. This app runs on a large server with huge amounts
of both RAM and disk space. Perhaps there is some setting
that I (and the server admin) have overlooked.
Any ideas?

Where is the Access app being run? In Windows Terminal Server
sessions? Or on desktops? If on the desktops, then the server
configuration has zilch to do with it, but if on WTS, then you need
to look at the WTS settings. Perhaps you have insufficient RAM for
the number of simultaneous users involved.

Oracle, it could temporarily pull from local tables. That eliminates

Office 2000, and there are service packs for Jet separately (SP8 I
think). Run Microsoft Update to exhaustion. The last thing you want is
bang your head against the wall and later find out MSFT fixed that
issue in a service pack.

software installed. Printer drivers, video drivers, and fonts can be

This client *needs* that code! :)

This sounds like a very good idea. But I need to know:
- Conversion issues between A2K and A2002
- Reliability of new Printer object
(better than DevMode, but needs to be perfect)
* Simplify the problem. For example rather than pulling the data

This is a large, complex, multi-user database with many
applications. All the apps are "locked" to read-only to
prevent bloating and corruption. (But this locking itself
might be the source of other problems. I really hope not.)
Local tables are hardly a practical solution. Perhaps if you
meant a temporary ADO cursor that resides in memory only not
in any files, databases or Access apps ... that might work?
Or even creating a temporary Access DB to use as a back end;
I did this to export to DBASE files while keeping the Access
app read-only.
* Run the app locally. Another simplification.
Running this system in its present form was a solution to
many other problems incurred by running it locally.
* Always run on latest service packs. I believe there is
a SR-3 for Office 2000, and there are service packs for Jet
separately (SP8 I think). Run Microsoft Update to exhaustion.

OK, I'll suggest this.

As a test.

Is this a separate product, or a bunch of add-ins for Windows
Terminal Server? I thought that Microsoft had licensed the basic
Citrix technology and used it as the basis for WTS and Remote
Desktop, and that all Citrix provided now was a set of add-on tools
for use with WTS.
Have I misunderstood?
In any event, if you're mucking around with printer settings, that
may have a problem, since there's the issue of mapping the user's
local printer to be usable from the terminal session. In WTS, Win2K
didn't do this very well, but Win2K3 has made it transparent (as
long as an appropriate printer driver is installed on the WTS). In
NT 4 Server days, you had to buy Citrix extensions to get any
printer mapping, so maybe the Citrix product you are using provides
some different methods. Or on desktops? If on the desktops, then the server
configuration has zilch to do with it, but if on WTS,
then you need to look at the WTS settings. Perhaps you
have insufficient RAM for the number of simultaneous
users involved.
I think so too. Could there be other Citrix-based settings
that need to be adjusted for Access?
My only experience is with WTS in Win2K and Win2K Server. I've never
used any Citrix products.

I do know the server is Citrix Server, and I connect to it with
Citrix Client. I'm not too sure of the exact relation between
Citrix and WTS; though my web research confirmed what you said.
Have I misunderstood?
It's Citrix.

that may have a problem, since there's the issue of mapping

Could be.
Right now, I am going through all the reports in the apps and
setting their page setups to use Default printers. That might
make a difference; as I found out that the reports that had
the most trouble were the ones set to specific printers.
That seems to cause the most problems with the DevMode code.

I think I have a better idea of that now, but thank you
nevertheless. I did try creating a new DB, importing all
the objects, and manually re-linking all the ODBC tables.
That is a common solution for Access DB/app corruption,
but it didn't help.
(see my reply to David Fenton)
Upgrading to A2002 or 2003 is painless.
My client and I will have to do that, sooner or later.
Note that you can keep the A2000 file format if you want.
I don't know of any benefit not to.
Question: If I use A2003, can I keep all my apps in A2K format,
but be able to use the Report object? Or is that feature
limited to A2K apps only?
