I have an .mde file which is generating Error 2447 "There is an invalid use of the . (dot) or ! operator or invalid parentheses."<br>The program worked fine when running under Access97 on Win 95 but now we are running under both win98 and 2000 and it is generating these errors. Does anyone knwo if I need to change any settings under Access or windows to get around this problem?<br><br>thanks,<br><br>Michael.
