    Hello,

    As the title, I have a microsoft access 2016 application and I wish to use the app on another pc which only has microsoft access 2007 installed.

    I cannot open the app at all.

    Any suggestions on how I can ammend it so that I can open in microsoft access 2007?

    Thanks

    Yours Sincerely,

    If you supply a db with a user name / password login form, you could at least supply that information so it can be easily opened
    .
    I did open it using a 'back door' using Access 2010 and the obvious issue is that you have 2 version specific VBA references which may be broken if you try to open it in 2007.
    Thee code compiles in 2010 & there are no obvious issues with table datatypes.
    You have one API which will need modifying if you are trying to open this in 64-bit Access

    Assuming it is your db, open it bypassing the login form as I did, go to the VBA Editor & first check the references.
    Then fix the API if using 64-bit
