Access 2003 corrupting my .adp files

I have a database in a .adp file. If I work on it using Access 2003
it will crash when I am changing a form or report. If I go to a
backup and recreate the same series of changes it will crash
everytime. If I do those same changes in Acess 2007 it's fine.

When I go back to open the file it is corrupted and unusable. If I
work on it in Access 2007 it's fine.

It first started doing this after I had installed Access 2007. I had
mistakenly thought it was because I had two versions of Access
installed on my computer. Well that isn't the case because I just
tried working on the file on a computer that never had Access 2007
installed and it did the same thing.

Anyone else experiencing this problem? Both machines have Access 2003

If you are going back to the same backup every time maybe the file was
already corrupted when you took the backup. Try creating a new ADP file and
importing all the objects into it from the backup copy.

Hi all! This has happened to two different databases to me in two days. A query which has been working flawlessly for over 9 months suddenly won't run because the "ISNULL" function is undefined. Compact and Repair - no problems. JetComp utility - no problems. Then I try to edit a module, and the VB editor won't let me make any

I have a client who is using Access 2002/2000 (the database itself is written in 2000), and is considering migrating to Access 2003. Any recommendations on whether Access 2003 is worth the migrate, or should he stick with 2002? Thanks! Neil

We've had a very large A97 app running fine for the last seven years.

Ok I have searched the MS website for info on this. I am totally confused. If I want to deploy an Access 2003 app and allow my users to run it using Access 2003 Runtime, where do I get the Runtime? I just purchased Office 2003 Professional. Is Access 2003 Runtime included with that or not? It APPEARS that the only way I can get Access 2003 Runtime is to

I've got a system that's been corrupting repeatedly recently and I'm having trouble tracking down the cause. I've done as much reading as I can so far, but am starting to get lost as most of the common causes/solutions don't seem to apply. Particulars: Access 97 recently converted to 2003 (started life in 2.0). Corruption did start after the 2003 upgrade, which is in prep for converting to SQL Server.

I've converted my application from A2K format to A2003 format. I tried to follow Allen Browne's protocol in getting my app into A2003 (although I was unable to find informtion on the conversion process). Lots of decompiling and lots of compacting of the original application in A2000. Then the app was opened in A2003 and compacted, decompiled and compacted. Next I imported everything into a blank A2003 database. Then this db was...

I have a database that had been stable until 3 weeks ago. The Access 2003 database occasionally (a couple of times a week) gets corrupted when the last user exits the application. At least, that's what I'm assuming since they get no error while working. If I make a copy of the database prior to the last user logging out, that copied DB remains undamaged. If I attempt to log back the original DB in once everyone is out, I get the dreaded...

Anyone else experiencing corruption problems using Access 2003 to edit .adp files? I've been experiencing corruption problems with a particular database. I've tried copying all the objects into a new file, but it didn't help. Here is an example of the problem, yesterday I added a new field to my SQL table. To put it on the form I copied an existing text field and converted that field from text to combo box. Quicker because I'm using...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
