Indeed, it took MS just over a year to release a fix (for VBA at least). Lots of unhappy users, Probably no need to read it all, just keep in handy in case you have any issues. If you make sure that KB fix is in place you should be fine. I have had no issues since with patch, loads before. cheers Darryl ________________________________________ From: accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com [accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com] on behalf of Bill Patten [bill_patten at embarqmail.com] Sent: Tuesday, 25 September 2012 1:33 PM To: Access Developers discussion and problem solving Subject: Re: [AccessD] What's the bug/problem with creating with Access2010 and deploying to earlier users? Darryl, Thanks so much. I took a quick look at the LONG thread. It started in Feb 2011 and ended in Feb 2012 so I'm not sure how much I'll read but I'll run the KB asap. Thanks again.

Hi Bill, Here is the KB with the fix <<http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2640696>> here is a long thread which coverd many of the issues. <<http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/windowsgeneraldevelopmentissues/thread/3a4ce946-effa-4f77-98a6-34f11c6b5a13/?prof=required>> worth a read if you want more details on what to look for. cheers Darryl ________________________________________ From: accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com [accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com] on behalf of Bill Patten [bill_patten at embarqmail.com] Sent: Tuesday, 25 September 2012 2:08 AM To: Access Developers discussion and problem solving Subject: Re: [AccessD] What's the bug/problem with creating with Access 2010 and deploying to earlier users? Darryl, I am still decompiling/recompiling my ADP apps in an XP VM prior to shipping. How can a confirm that the problem is fixed? Was it a KB? (I'd just as soon not let my clients be the ones to tell me it hasn't been fixed.

There was a major bug between Windows 7 SP1 and any other version of the OS if you used ADO. This has been (finally) fixed for VBA after about 14 months of dithering by Microsoft. This impacted any program that used ADO. However that was an OS level issue, not Access itself. -----Original Message----- From: accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com [mailto:accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com] On Behalf Of David McAfee Sent: Friday, 21 September 2012 3:09 AM To: Access Developers discussion and problem solving Subject: [AccessD] What's the bug/problem with creating with Access 2010 and deploying to earlier users? Isn't there a bug where databases created in A2010 and are deployed to users with A2003-2007? The reason I ask is that I am getting a new computer at work that has Office 2010 installed. I mainly work with ADPs, and they are we created in Access 2000 (or in A2k Format). Is there even an issue?
