[AccessD] New Computer Gives Error

Hi Rocky:

Off the top Rocky, it sounds like he has installed the barebones Windows7
version, on to a 64 bit piece of hardware. 

The low end Windows 64bit products do not have backward capability for 32bit
software when they are running in 64bit mode. He should upgrade to Premium
minimum or/and then there is a Microsoft patch at:
http://www.microsoft.com/windows/virtual-pc/download.aspx

Note: Your version of Access may also be incompatible with the latest
versions of Office.
  
Good luck
Jim

Subject: [AccessD] New Computer Gives Error

Dear List:

I am out of town until the 17th so figuring out what's wrong with an app
that has been running fine and now doesn't is awkward.  

The user got a new computer with (I think) W7 and new Office (but he
doesn't know which version) and sent me the screen shot he gets when he
tries to open the app.  

The error reads:"The expression you entered as the event property
setting produced the following error code: the code in this project must
be updated for use on 64-bit systems. Please review and update Declare
statements and then mark them with the PtrSafe attribute."

Is he running the 64-bit Office and needs to load 32-bit version
instead?  

MTIA,

Rocky
