Access does not respond when creating a query
When I create a new query Access asks what type. I select a simple query. When I press enter access does nothing. A Spinning circle appears. Eventually it tells me Access is not responding.
A client has the same issue that just showed last week. Access goes not responding when using the Query Wizard and picking simple query. I've tried on 4 machine with 3 different databases and all have the same issue. They all have Office 365 Access 15427.20210 or 15437.20194. I tried all three databases on an old machine the has Office 2013 Pro installed and they work fine. Seems like maybe an Office 365 update broke this feature?
There is a recently reported bug using wizards, although I don't recall specifically that it impacted the Query Wizard. It probably does as well.
It happens with tables that have an MVF or attachment field in them.
- Thanks for the response, so you're saying we have hope that someone is looking into this issue.
Thank you- Yes, as long as it turns out the problem is general to all wizards. Also, can you confirm that your accdb does have an MVF or attachment field in the table which raised the error?
Yes that is true.
