<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#000000 size=2><SPAN class=303374700-18022003>This
brings up another very real reason why Windows 98/me sucks. I have seen
cases where instances of Access were hanging around. They are visible in
the Processes tab of Win2K's task manager but are not visible in the
Applications tab or in Windows 98 / ME. In A2K you can just look in the
Processes tab, find them, and shut them down. In Windows 98 / ME, they
can't be seen at all so you don't even know they are still loaded - until you
start running into the swap file that is. Rebooting Windows 98 is the only
way to remove these ghosts.</SPAN></FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=114542023-17022003>I've been
working on an Access 2000 frontend for several hours -- testing and
debugging some reports. I'm in a module looking at a sub procedure that I
just documented. I decide to add an error handler using the ODE tool from
the Add Ins list. I ALWAYS save before I run this.</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
