2. right click on the control choose Build Event
3. choose Code Builder
4. click Ok
5. access freezes then disappears with no error message
6. Event Viewer records the application crash
MS is now aware of the problem. They'll let us know when a fix will be available.
Thanks again for letting us know.

Hi,
I'm using Microsoft 365 MSO (Version 2311 Build 16.0.17029.20068) 32-bit.
I'm having the same problem with the Edge Browser.
In fact, the crash occured when the browser is set to Visible = False and you open the form.
If you set Visible = true, the form will open normally.
Please let us know if you have a solution for this issue.

There's been a fix for a related (?) problem in the latest 2311 build 17029.20108. So, you can try to update and check whether it also solves your problem.
If not, do you do anything in code, like navigating, setting it to visible etc. when you open the form?

Check out the Access Forever article. Please add your description of the problem there, as well.
I'm also going to pass this along to see who else can replicate the problem.
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?
