Thread: Need help with illogical issue

    Talking Need help with illogical issue

    background:
    • I have created multiple Access databases for a local hobby club.
    • There are thousands of lines of VBA code
    • These programs are individually installed on 10 computers and have been working perfectly for several years.
    • They are written in MS Access 365
    • Each computer is a 64-bit system running Windows 10


    Issue:
    • We just added a new computer to the mix.
    • It has a 64-bit process
    • It is running Windows 10
    • Non of the applications will run


    Error Message:
    • There is no error message number
    • The message box tells me to "update the program to run on a 64-bit processor"


    We have looked for and tried several things, but to no success.

    Any ideas what I can try? Any ideas 'why' this is happening?

    kicker, have we spoken before, your id seems familiar?
    Does Access run?
    Do any databases open?
    Can you create a new database that works?
    Can you import the objects from the problem databases in to a new database?

    I am going to bed now as it is 23.46 here in the UK, so I will talk to you tomorrow.

    Yes I believe we have spoken before. I'm going to mark this solved because I found the problem which I hate to admit.
    We've been working with Office 365 - Access. Everything has been working great until we bought a new computer. Office 365 was installed as 64-bit. I discovered that the other installations were 32-bit. The VBA had some declare statements only valid in 32-bit.

    Fixed the code and it works.

    Thanks
