Access 2003 & Vista

JC
I recently installed my Access 2003 app onto my new PC with Vista
Business. Now when I close various windows within the program, I see a
white block where a particular window was along with the red X from
the upper right hand corner of the closed screen.

It seemed like a video problem so I contaced Dell but they varified
that I have the latest video driver for my XPS M1330 so they are
blaming Access. But the program works fine the other systems running
XP so it is looking like Vista is the common denominator.

Any ideas where I could go from here?

Thanks.
JC

JC, I don't think Vista is your problem. I'm running A2003 on Vista
Business and I'm not seeing the problem you describe. Apart from a
charting problem that I described in an earlier post which is now
fixed, A2003 performs just as well for me on Vista as on XP.

Not sure where to go to from here. It certainly sounds like some sort
of graphics problem to me, but I'm no expert.
Maybe others will have some ideas.

If you develop for others, you probably have multiple versions of Access installed so you can edit and create MDEs for clients in different versions. This works fine under Windows XP, even with Access 2007 installed. It does *not* work under Windows Vista Ultimate. After running Access 2007, when you open an earlier version of Access, no code works, because the references are fouled up. And Access 97 does not work at all. Access should...

Hello - This is my first posting to this group, so please bear with me. Also note, that while I'm intelligent, databases are not in my field of knowledge. I'm working with a small limousine company. They presently have about 4 networked computers, all running Windows XP (w/SP2) and Microsoft Office 2000 (specifically Access 2000) - and a plain jane p3 server also running Windows XP (w/sp2) with Office 2000 loaded onto it.

Hi Have just installed IIS7 on Vista and am trying to access a .mdb file through ASP. Getting server error. I think the problem is in the file permission. Under XP Pro/IIS6 is used to have to set the .mdb file security via windows explorer to give IUSR_machinename full permissions on this file for anonymous web access. Cant seem to do this with Vista explorer - says object cannot be found.

Hello Everyone, I'm having some very weird behavior on a couple of Access forms. (Not all forms, just some of them).

Hi all, So I bought a new laptop 10 days ago to test my apps with Vista. (home premium) Apparently Office 2007 is pre-installed. (a time limited but complete test version, no SP1) So I take the opportunity to test some new features of Access2007 before actually 'stepping over'. First thing that troubles me of course is 'the ribbon', but my question now is about speed. I opened one of my Access 2000-apps in Access 2007. Speed and...

I'm in the progress of upgrading from Access 97 to Access 2003. I've read about some of the bugs introduced by Office Service Pack 3: http://allenbrowne.com/bug-Access2003SP3.html I've also seen the KB945674 hotfix: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/945674 Does SP3 cause more problems than it solves? Would I be better off installing SP2 (and not SP3) or installing SP3 along with the hotfix?

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

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.
