    Repeated rebuild of right-click menu throws error

    Okay, here is a screen shot. The text is in Czech, but it should be obvious what's going on. I captured the menu expanded out to four levels. Your idea about cascading comboboxes is not at all a bad one - I've used that technique in other places. In fact, this very database uses it - the top...

    Repeated rebuild of right-click menu throws error

    The app doesn't need decompiling or C & R in regular use. -I- do that frequently when developing, because I try all sorts of odd things, and make lots of mistakes in the process. I have batch and script files for a number of such regular tasks, including making archive copies to a remote server...

    Repeated rebuild of right-click menu throws error

    One thing I suppose I could try is to build a very simple form with a single control with a right-click menu, and just load it up until it crashes. If I try various build configurations and it always crashes at or around the same number, that would give me an upper limit on the number of items...

    Repeated rebuild of right-click menu throws error

    I'm using 2007 and 2010, both 32 and 64 bit versions. Yes, I decompile regularly, so regularly, in fact, that I have a .BAT file to do it alongside every app I work on. Besides using it whenever an app starts misbehaving, I always do that and recompile, and C & R as the last step before...

    Repeated rebuild of right-click menu throws error

    That's kind of what I'm thinking, but I have found no documentation on the subject. I'm hoping someone here knows something about it.

    Repeated rebuild of right-click menu throws error

    I have an Access application that was originally built in Access 2000. Several textboxes and comboboxes use custom right-click menus to call filter routines. The RC menus are built in code, and some are quite extensive - hundreds of items, nested up to four levels deep.When data in a field...

    Combobox row source

    Some more - the only way I can get the form to NOT save the rowsources is in the Close event, set them all back to "" and execute a specific "DoCmd.Save acForm, Name". Any deviation from that causes the unwanted rowsources to be saved.

    Combobox row source

    No. To close the form, I use the "DoCmd.Close acForm, Name" command, with no third parameter. I also tried specifying the third parameter, with all three permitted argument values. The rowsources get saved, regardless of whether I use acSaveNo, acSaveYes or acSavePrompt. I do nothing the save...

    Combobox row source

    Thank you for the offer, but this app is pretty involved. Stripping it down to that point would be a huge amount of work, and I don't know if it would help anyway. It uses ODBC links to communicate with SQL Server, which would not be available on your test machine. The problem is simply that a...

    Combobox row source

    It's been a long time since Access has managed to thoroughly stump me, but ... I have a form called in dialog mode. It has numerous comboboxes, some of which have a huge number of records in their row source. I'm trying to use the technique of having a blank row source, then populating it only...
