The problem only arises when the filetype you have set is later than the one you created the project in. It isn't the version of Access you're using, it's the file format your have to watch out for. If you leave your project in 2000 and have the file set to that type, you don't run into any issues pulling a new database out of VSS. The scc folders can also get corrupted sometimes, or at least specific files in those folders, so deleting them solves various problems when pulling a new version out of VSS. It's the first thing I do when I start getting those charming crashes that phone home to Uncle Bill.<g> Charlotte Foust -----Original Message----- From: John Colby [mailto:jcolby at colbyconsulting.com] Sent: Monday, November 03, 2003 6:11 AM To: Access Developers discussion and problem solving Subject: RE: [AccessD] Weird Access XP/SS problem-Answer. Charlotte, I would hope there is a better answer than that. I intentionally leave my client's dbs in A2K file format since AXP as the compact bug. John W.

This will happen if the file format you have currently selected is Access 2000 but the project was created and checked into VSS in 2002 format. All you need to do is open a database and change your Access file format to 2002 then pull a new database out of VSS. Once you get the crash, it's a good idea to delete the scc folder for the project so it will be recreated when you pull the database out. Otherwise, you sometimes have problems with whatever caused the crash in the first place.
