Trouble with 2000 in XP/2002

[Carmen]

I've searched the forum and have seen several references to this problem but no real solution. I have developed an Access 2000 front end (.adp) on a SQL Server 2000 db. The front end resides on the same server as the SQL server. I have created a read-only user group for the db. Some of my users are running Windows XP/Office 2002 and are having trouble accessing some of the functions. The front end opens to a switchboard with 4 buttons: One opens a form and 3 open reports. While my Office 98 and 2000 users can work everything perfectly, my 2002 users cannot open the form or ONE of the reports. The other two reports open fine. The code behind is the same structure: DoCmd.OpenReport and DoCmd.OpenForm. Can anyone point me in the right direction? I appreciate any help!!

Us, too!

Maybe it's Denver's altitude: we're having the same problems here in Englewood, CO.

I created a complete database in Access2000 3 years ago. Runs fine on NT/2000/XP, so long as users have Office2000/Access2000. Three users recently upgraded to Office 2003, and now the switchboard has "dead" buttons that appear to "click" with the mouse, but no action, at the 4th layer down from the Main board. No clues.

Anybody else been through this?

check for missing references

search the forum if you do not know what that means

Wow..I posted this so long ago, I've changed jobs since then!
I did fix this problem, and if I remember correctly I had to access the front end on a machine with XP/2002, recompile the code, and then everything worked fine for both the XP users and the 98/2000 users. And like ghudson said, checking for missing references is a great idea..that is sometimes the culprit.
