I am debugging an Access application written by someone else. In
Access 2003 it behaves OK, but the client needs to upgrade to Access
2007 for various reasons. When the app is run in Access 2007 I get a
few niggles that I have been working through, but this one has really
got me stumped....
A subform of a subform (I'll call it subform2) will not display any
records. On further investigation I noticed the following line of code
was producing the following error
Me.RecordSource = strSQL
Results in Error 2467 The expression you entered refers to an object
that is closed or doesn't exist.
This line of code runs from the Oncurrent event of subform2. In the
same event whilst debugging I noticed the following:
Me.Name
Results in Error 5 Invalid procedure call or argument
That's the one that really got me!
What I have done so far (The problem could be reproduced after each
change listed below):
Converted the mdb to an accdb file
Imported all objects in to a new accdb file
Decompiled/recompiled (a thousand times)
Tried SaveAsText on all forms
Matched all references in the accdb to those in the original mdb .
This included adding the "microsoft forms 2.0 object library" and
"Microsoft windows common controls" back in, even though the accdb did
not require them to compile.
I'm stuck help!

Just "debug.print Me.Name". There are no reserved words used anywhere.

Just to reiterate, this works fine in Access 2003. >> Stay informed about: Me.Name results in ""Invalid procedure call or argument"" |

Just Me.Name on it's own, or is it something = Me.Name, or Me.Name =
something?
Is there a field in the form's recordsource, a control on the form, or a
procedure, called Name? That could well cause a problem, as Name is a
reserved word and should not be used as an identifier. >> Stay informed about: Me.Name results in ""Invalid procedure call or argument"" |

Does anyone have any ideas? This looks like an Access 2007 specific
problem.

Hi Paul,
Is it really "debug.print", all lower case? Then the error is probably
in finding "Debug.Print". Any "debug" objects defined anywhere? Or, there
is a possibility that there is some non-printing character mixed into that
line. Probably none of your efforts would get rid of it. How about deleting
the entire line and retyping it? Of course, you could just get rid of the
line altogether.
