MS Access crashes with Edge Browser Control Code Builder
Steps: 1. add the ms edge browser control to an ms access form 2. right click on the control choose Build Event 3. choose Code Builder 4. click Ok 5. access freezes then disappears with no error...
MS is now aware of the problem. They'll let us know when a fix will be available.
Thanks again for letting us know.
I can replicate that with Access 365.
What version do you have? I have Version 2306 Build 16529.20146 installed.
George_Hepworth I am running MS Access version 16.0, build 16501.
- Thanks. We've replicated this a couple of times now. It's been forwarded to the MS Access team for evaluation.
The workaround that I found is to immediately use the Build Event which automatically pops up when you first insert the web browser control. At that point, it accepts the URL without crashing. If you dismiss the dialog, but go back later, following your described steps, then the crash occurs.
In my case, the VBA IDE flashed before the crash. Did that also happen in your scenario?- When I add the control to the form, the Build Event menu does not automatically pop up. I have to right click and choose Build Event. When it crashes, the VBA IDE UI distorts a bit then disappears. Right after that Access restarts itself.
