I did experience this issue at one client.  To solve it, I changed the ADO
code to late-binding.  Worked fine!

Brad,

I can't answer your question about has it been fixed yet but can tell you my
solution.

I continue to develop in my win 7 64 bit machine, then when I am ready to
ship I move the ADP in most cases (but it also works with an MDB) to an XP
VM or I also have an XP test machine, then decompile/ re-compile and ship
from that machine to my clients.

Subject: [AccessD] W7 SP1 breaking ADO

All,

Several weeks ago, there were a number of posts here in AccessD regarding a
problem with W7 SP1 breaking ADO.  I read these posts but did not quite
understand the problem.  Because this issue did not affect the work that I
was doing, I did not dig very deeply into this issue.

Now things have changed, and I need to better understand this issue.

We might start to use a Windows 7 box for Access 2007 development (possibly
Access 2010).  The Access applications will be deployed to some users who
have Win XP SP3 and some running under Windows Server
2003 R2 Enterprise Edition SP2 (via Terminal Services).

I have some dumb questions.

Is the crux of the problem caused by using 64-bit for Development and 32-bit
for Deployment?

Is the problem limited to W7 SP1?  Can you run W7 without SP1?  Is SP2
available?  Does it fix the problem?

It looks like we can either stay with Access 2007 or move to Access 2010.
Does this make a difference with regards to this problem?

Thanks,
Brad
