I haven't seen this before. You use File/New to create a new database in
Access and call it DB1. Close Access, click on db1, Access opens and there's
nothing there. Then I try opening the database from File/Open, actually open
the file, and there's nothing there. No database window or anything.
No new software has been installed on the computer. There are other
databases that won't open either by clicking them or from file/open. It is
the full, not the run-time version.
I am thinking that Access needs to be re-installed, but with all the
licensing stuff MS does I don't know if that's a good idea. Assume I do
re-install. Do you un-install and re-install? Or is there a repair feature.
(This is on a computer to which I don't have access & am working with
somebody over the phone.)
Thanks,
Mike
