[AccessD] Windows 7

Hey all,

For testing I use Virtual PC.   On my Widows 7 Ultimate 64-bit machine I
have  XP mode installed. I also have Vista 32 and 64 bit versions installed.
Along with Windows 7 32 bit.  This allows me to easily test in all the OS
environments. The rollback feature is really great in Virtual PC

@Tony, my guess is that the Windows 7 machines that are having an issue are
the  64-bit version of the OS. Is this correct?

I put W7 on my backup box so I don't do much Access over there.  But what I
have done - so far no problems.  Do you have a spare box you could put W7 on
and use for a test bed?

Hey All
I have an Access2003 program (MDE) used by a client, they have upgraded
their machines to Windows 7  and now they get the dreaded  "The OpenForm
action was cancelled" when they click the button on the main menu for one
option (the others all work fine). The only thing this form has that the
others don't is a CommonDialog control.  I haven't as yet had them check for
missing references (the office doesn't open until 8AM, I may have to send
them the MDB to check).  They startup the program with their version of
Access2003.  In trying to research the cause of this problem,  I am seeing
that  Access2003 can develop some problems when running under Windows 7.
Have any of you run into other  problems?

Thanks
Tony
