Ah, the original description implied that you didn't have the accdb. So, the problem is in that accdb itself. That's where you have to find and correct the problem BEFORE recompiling to accde again.
It is possibly an unhandled error in the VBA, OR incipient corruption in the source accdb.
Karl's right about the conversion service, and I would have suggested that if you didn't have the acdb to work with.
- John_VallierFeb 02, 2023Copper ContributorThe uncompiled .accdb works without problems. The issue is really strange because it occurs only after recompiling and it's been in use for about a week. I've worked with access a very long time and have never encountered this type of behavior. The conversion service has been in touch now so I'll work with them. Thank you all very much for your responses.

How about when you use the full accdb for about a week, does it continue to work correctly also?
