Undefined function 'Chr' in expression

[paddy_nyr]

I converted an Access 97 db to Access 2002 db and I now get the following
error message when I try and run a query.

Thanks

Here's my query.

SELECT DISTINCTROW tblCo_Info.Co_id, [Co_Name] & Chr(13) & Chr(10) & [Adr1]
& IIf(Trim([Adr2])<>"",Chr(13) & Chr(10) & [Adr2],"") & Chr(13) & Chr(10) &
IIf(Trim([City])<>"",Trim([City]) & ", ","") & [State] & " " & [Zip] AS
Address, [F_name] & IIf(Trim([MI])<>""," " & Trim([MI]) & ". "," ") &
[L_Name] & Chr(13) & Chr(10) & [Title] & Chr(13) & Chr(10) &
IIf(Trim([Phone])<>"","Phone: " & Trim([Phone]) & Chr(13) & Chr(10),"") &
IIf(Trim([Fax])<>"","Fax: " & Trim([Fax]) & Chr(13) & Chr(10),"") &
IIf(Trim([email])<>"","E-mail: " & Trim([email]),"") AS Contact,
tblCo_Info.Co_id
FROM tblCo_Info
WHERE tblCo_Info.Co_id<>"AAA";

Hi there,

I tried this query in Access 2002:

SELECT [LastName] & Chr(13) & Chr(10) & [FirstName] AS Name
FROM tblEmployees;

and it works fine. Suggest you do something similar. Break your select
statement down into smaller, more manageable pieces, get something very
simple to work, add fields to your query till it breaks.
Chr() is fine.

You probably have a missing reference on the change over to 2002.

Open any module in Design view (or click Ctrl + G).
On the Tools menu, click References.
Click to clear the check box for the type library or object library
marked as "Missing:."

An alternative to removing the reference is to restore the referenced
file to the path specified in the References dialog box. If the
referenced file is in a new location, clear the "Missing:" reference
and create a new reference to the file in its new folder.

See Microsoft KnowledgeBase articles:
283115 'ACC2002: References That You Must Set When You Work with
Microsoft Access'
Or for Access 97:
175484 'References to Set When Working With Microsoft Access' for
the correct ones needed,
and
160870 'VBA Functions Break in Database with Missing References' for
how to reset a missing one.
