Using a calendar control forces ACCESS to dump

In my existing mdb I run into a "new" problem. Every time I click on a calendar control Both in design as in normal view) on a form ACESS2002 totally dumps. It was working well in the past; so I do not understand wat happens (SP2?)
 
Hallo,

Don't know about MS Access 2002, but in previous versions, corruption of the mdb file would cause similar behavior.
Try creating a new database and importing all the objects from your old one. You'll have to manually copy and Startup properties.

In my experience it is generally the forms which can go bad. If you find a form which won't import (because it is corrupted, presumably), you'll have to import everything else and import the bad form from a previous version of the database, losing any changes on that form since then, I'm afraid.

Hi Frink, thanks for responding, but I already trieds that.
The only thing I can think of is that it has something to do with DLL's and/or the combination with Service Pack2.
Any suggestions?

Ah, if you've installed SP2 and it's stopped working then that's the most likely explanation.

Try creating a new database with a test form. Put a calendar control on it and see it that works. If it does then delete your broken calendar control and create it again.

I'm afraid that's about all I can suggest. Good luck!
