Different computers - different results

[CEH]

Title about says it!! This is a little DB for photos I am playing with... trying to incorporate all the fun little things I've learned from the forum.... A Photo program, a program that hides the Access wrapper, and a program that opens other programs.... It worked perfectly on my laptop during development... I try it at work... getting different errors and can't decipher the problem.
Rather simple.... Open one form to add program.... Add the path to the photo program you want to open. Then on the main form add the photos. You opne them by picking the program and a button.
Can someone tell me if it is working on your system? And what the errors might be?
Thanks

When I hear anyone talk about their database working on the development machine and not on another, I immediatly think "references". On a machine where you are getting the errors, go to your VBA code window and then to Tools/References and see if there are any "missing" references. If so, resolve the missing references by selecting the version of the reference that is available on that machine.

Hopefully this will correct the problem.

It opens up correctly and I can add an image.

I'm running Windows Vista Access 2007.

Mr B....... No missing references.....

Simon..... Can you add a path to a photo program and open the photo in that program with the command button?

Works fine for me. Access 2007, Vista. Can add programs, images and open them in the program set. Good little app.

Curtis,

Nice work - added Program Photoshop then added another image, selected program and opened photoshop with the image.

OK..... Thats what its suppose to do.. Now I just need to figure out why it won't on this machine.... If you remove the apostrophe from the Onload event of the menu, it will hide the Access wrapper too....

Curtis,

What happens with the database on the PC that doesn't play ball. What are the errors?

On this computer I only have ms paint and I added Gimp..... But I add path to program.... Add picture (works fine) But when I try to open it in paint it returns Paint error..... " C:\Documents.bmp was not found" ?????????

Hmmm paint - try using Photoshop Elements not hugely expensive but a proper application.

I have several other photo programs that work fine.. on the developing system. I'm guessing they would also work on another computer..... But a few programs, won't open with the concatenated line......MSpaint, Gimp, and also Paint.net has problems.....
stAppName = ([txtPathToProg] & " " & [imagepath])
If I use part of it..... just stAppName = ([txtPathToProg]) it will open the program..... So...... For someone who knows more about coding then myself (That shouldn't take much) Why is this???????
