[AccessD] Access 2021 LTSC 14332.20416 vs 14332.20345 "command or action 'saverecord' isn't available now. 2046

[Jim Dettman]

 Keep in mind that it may not be Access.

 Depending on what was done in the code, a slower/faster machine can trigger
something like this, or just a difference in the way two builds execute.
Everyone tends to think of Access a monolithic product that is single
threaded, but it's not.  For example, code running in a form timer can be
executing in the background while something else is going on.   There are
other situations as well where the order of operations is not what you might
expect yielding errors like this.

 You don't see it as much as you used to because machines have gotten so
fast, but it can still happen.   Good way to catch this is to put a stop in
code.  Let it hit it and just wait a few seconds, then hit F5 to continue.
If you've got your lines numbered and reported as part of your error handler
(vba.erl), then it's easy to know where to put the stop in.  If not, just
put one at the start of the routine that does the printing and work from
there.

Jim.

I have one user who's on 16.0.14332.20416, and another beside him still on
16.0.14332.20345.

The user experiencing the error message is on the newer version and has a
sporadic "The command or action 'SaveRecord' isn't available now. 2046"
when pressing a button that triggers a bunch of printing to a PDF printer
(as well as some logic that does run DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdSaveRecord
before the printing starts.

Has anyone seen this bug/regression themselves? I may end up rolling my
users back.
