    rename your .accde as .accdr (runtime)

merely renaming to .accdr will not cause any errors.

maybe your startup code has some errors. try compiling your db first.

and make sure to comment out code like:

 

On Error Resume Next

 

BTW, i tested:

DoCmd.ShowToolbar "Ribbon", acToolbarNo

 

and it did hide the ribbon. so the problem is that somewhere you have

errors and you disable the error handler.

    Hi arnel_gp

    The .accdr file change did the trick. I don't know how it was fixed as I closed the database twice and the third time there was no error. Everything is lock up tight.

    Thanks to you and everyone who contributed to my problem. It is greatly appreciated.

    Kindest regards
