    Macro Error


    I am getting several macro errors a day where the 'Action Failed' dialog box pops up allowing the user to 'Stop All Macros'. Here's the background. I have a backend and a front end installed on Windows Server 2008 RC. The user logs in using OpenVPN and Remote Desktop and runs the frontend on the server (not on his local machine). The macro listed in the Action Failed dialog box is used to refresh the continuous form to show all of the open deliveries for my delivery business and is activated when the form is opened by the user. If the user simply closes the Action Failed dialog box and continues using the program there doesn't seem to be any negative effect. Any ideas why this is poping up? Thanks in advance.

    There are a million reasons this could be and without the exact failure message you're getting or a sample of your database it's going to be impossible to give you a direction.

    Thank you for your reply. Of course the error hasn't happened in a couple of days so I can't get a screen shot. I will get more information and post back as soon as I have it. Thanks again rpeare.

Please reply to this thread with any new information or opinions.
