    Access 2003 and Windows 7


    Am looking at a problem when a fully functioning app on XP Pro displays blank sub-forms when run on a new install of windows 7.

    Checked through the code which is doing form requeries and although they appear to be being executed the forms remain blank.

    Can get to tables and the form data via the query being run, and within the sub-form run in isolation - but still blank forms when viewed as a sub-form.

    Any suggestions or experiences of similar on Win7?

    All I can add is that blank subforms is the norm where there is no data and the records or the form is locked (allowadditions/deletions/edits=false)

    that is OS independent...

    If you want to post your db, I can try it on Win7.

    Blank Access Forms in Win7

    Hi pep's,

    Been out of it for a few weeks. Found issue was to do with MS Office 2003 service pack as Access 2003 is only compatible on Win7 with SP3 and above.
    So as soon as I applied the service packs all was dandy. My client had forgotten to makesure the new PC was fuly patched.

    Cheers for help.

    Keep cool
