We have numerous Access 97 apps that we run on our Terminal Server,
but two apps in particular is giving us a problem. The problem we are
running into is when you select a drop down menu, it errors out saying
the SQL server cannot be found. This is through the terminal session
and when logged on the server locally.
If I run the apps on my workstation they work fine.
In one of the problem apps, it runs flawless except for a similar
problem when a drop down menu doesnt work and throws and error about
not being able to connect to the SQL Server. All the other dropdown
menus (driven by a SQL Query as well) work fine.
The problem is reproducible every time, but its only on these two
particular drop down menus in these two apps.
I uninstalled and reinstalled the Access 97 runtime. I rebooted the
server. I ran Process Monitor, Network Monitor, etc and looked for any
errors with permissions and nothing popped up.
I built a similar system and the apps run fine through terminal
sessions on that box, but not on the deployed Terminal server.
Any ideas? I dont want to rebuild the box if I dont have to.
Thanks,

If it was a Jet back end, I would verify the path to the MDB when logged-on
the terminal server. Can you use the same connection information in excel on
the terminal server?

Its a SQL Server backend. While logged onto the terminal server, the
other Access apps with SQL Backends work fine. In fact, one app has no
problem at with data exchange except for one drop down menu. The app
works fine until you get a specific for with a drop down menu.

Yes, its just a query from a linked table. The app contains a dozen or
so linked tables and a couple local tables to write error stuff to.
Sorry about the double post, Google groups kept throwing up an error
so I kept resubmitting it.

The query is not a pass-though?
Can you add a form or report, based on the query and open it on the terminal
server?
Are you using runtime on your workstations or only on the terminal server.
If not test the application using the runtime switch on your workstation. mi**@mcarlson.n et wrote:

This, of course, makes absolutely no sense at all. That said is there anything
unique about those combo boxes? Are they doing something wierd and using a call back
function? Could you post the contents of the Control Source field.
