Communicating with the OLE Server or ActiveX Control

I faced the same problem and I tried many things, the only (and fastest) solution that worked is to do the following: 1) Close the form that is causing the error. 2) Rename this form. 3) Duplicate it: Copy, then Paste, you will be prompted to set a name for the new form. Give it the original name. 4) Delete the original form that was causing the error. 5) Open the pasted form and it will work OK. This solution worked fine with my database... Regards...


Check for missing references. Make a back-up, decompile, compact & repair and if that does not work, copy everything to a new db ( http://www.granite.ab.ca/access/corruptmdbs.htm ) You may have to skip copying the problem form. Sometimes it is worth creating a new form, selecting all the controls from the old form and pasting into the new form.
