MS Access 2010 crasing on moving from Form Open to Form Design
Hi all, I have Office 2010 and use Access for hobby use. Lately, the database is crashing when I click on the screen header and select Design View from a Form View. I have attempted to - Compac...
Hi Karl,
It happens, most times, When I'm changing from View to Design mode with any form in the db but not every time. It's a bit like Russian Roulette. You just never know...
The db was first started around 2013 and has been reliable until recently. A suggestion that an Office or Windows update might the cause was made on the Access World Forum. I followed an instruction to remove an update but that had no effect.
I would be grateful for any help.

Hi Dave,
How about question No 3?
With some testing of a new db you might be able to determine if it is a system problem or a corruption in the particular db.
Did you already try the usual things with corrupt dbs?
a) create a new accdb and import all objects from the old db
and/or
b) the decompile command line switch, e.g. with a shortcut and a target path like
"c:\AccessPath\msaccess.exe" /decompile "c:\YourApplicationPath\Your.accdb"
