Note: I've posted this on the Access Forms forum a week ago and have gotten no responses. Can anyone help me?
I am working with Microsoft Power Point slides in MS Access 97. I
need them to be updated in Access whenever the form is
opened. I linked the slides to Unbound Object Frames
(OLEUnbound) and set the object's update property to
Automatic. When the slides are changed, the Access form does not
update upon opening. I have tried following help direction to use
the Edit, OLE/DDE Links menu option and that does not work. I
have also tried using myobject.action = acOLEUpdate within code
and that did not work, in fact it gave me an error: "Run Time Error
'2801': The OLE Object isn't loaded because the unbound Active X
control hasn't been intialized." The help option on this error is
pretty useless, it refers me to a generic troubleshooter concerning
the Windows registery. Does anybody have any ideas? I need to
be able to have these OLE objects update whenever the form is
open, but nothing seems to work. I'd appreciate your suggestions.
