code buttons not working

[Joanne]

Hi,

I'm a programmer who's having a problem with an Access installation.
I have a client for whom I've made an app with lots of code and it
works fine on one of his computers but on the other one none of the
buttons work. This is the exact same code.

I know it's not the code because I can run it from the immediate
window with a call statement. We've re-installed it several times,
the whole thing windows and Access. Another point is that everytime I
open access on her computer it's does some installation (installing
componets) procedure.

The version of windows 2000 and the version of access on both is
Access 2002.

If anyone has any ideas I would greatly appreciate it.

Thanks,

Joanne

Just a shot in the dark (the only place to drink!) -
did you try doing any of this stuff as at least Local Admin? It
sounds like something is trying to access the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE key
in the registry and failing, so it tries it every time you run the
code... If you make that user a local admin/domain admin and then run
the code, does it work?
