[AccessD] Access 2007 Report - Buttons Quit Working

Rocky,

Thanks for the assistance.

I followed the steps that you suggested.

When I Right Click on one of the buttons, select "Build Event", then
select "Code Builder" the VBA Window is opened.  The catch is that
normally it would open up to something like this ...




Private Sub Command99_Click()

End Sub





However, when the VBA Window is opened, it shows



Option Compare Database
Option Explicit




Which is at the top of the heap.


I added a brand new button and things worked nicely.

It appears that I have a very messed up report.

I deleted the Report and then copied it in from a backup copy of the
accdb file.
This fixed the problem with the buttons.

I am still puzzled about this problem because I have not worked with
this report for many weeks.

I guess that I may have angered the "Access Report gods"  :-)

Thanks again for your ideas and insights.

Brad

Brad:

After you copy the event code (excluding the Private Sub and End Sub
lines)
delete the event code (including the Private Sub and End Sub lines) you
will
need to recreate it.

Display the property sheet for the button (right click button, select
Properties)-->Events Tab-->On Click Event-->Drop down combo box and
select
[Event Procedure]--->click builder button to the right (button with the
three dots).  Then it will flip to the VBA page and you'll see the
Private
Sub and End Sub lines.  Paste your copied code in there.

HTH

Rocky,

I tried the steps that you suggested (copy out the code, delete the
module,
and recreate it, pasting back the code).

When I try to recreate the code, the VBA editor is opened, but it is not
showing the buttons Click event but it is showing code for another
button.

I am not sure how things work behind the scenes, but it appears that the
"links" between the buttons on the report and the VBA code are messed
up.

Thanks for your help.

Brad

How about if you copy out the code, delete the module, and recreate it,
pasting back the code?
