application Error

i am running access97 database  from windows NT .  however, for some reason it crashes all the time giving me a black little window with the following message:
"an application has occured in the program MSACCESS.exe crash information will be saved to the NOTES.RIP in
please report this crash to the vendor of the faulting application"
it normaly crashes, though, when you run a macro or code, even simple like opening a form.  also it won't let you create a new form either. please help

if you just use :
        docmd.OpenForm "Form1"
     then it crashes, the only one way to do is Uninstall and Reinstall the Microsoft Access 97 or may be MSOffice97 again.

Thank.

that is true but the reason i posted this question is because reinstalling office 97 is the last measure i am willing to take.  honestly, i am looking for the name of the dll file that may fix the thing. reinstalling office is not the BEST solution right now because i will have to shut down all the operations in the company for a while. but thanks anyways.
First, try making a new MDB and importing all the object from the old one. 50/50 shot this will fix it. If not, in these cases, you invariably need to not only reinstall Office, I would clean out your registry and Office directory after you uninstall and before you reinstall.
You can also try repairing your database....    supposedly this helps for some problems.  
I have had things happen where I would get application errors on code that was fine.  The best way to deal with it is locate the line of code that is causing the crash comment it out and then save it.   Add some more code, insert lines and just change the layout of the lines of code.  I have found that after doing that I can usually put the line of code back in and it works like a charm.  If that doesn't work I would do what tomook suggested.

thanks a lot for you'all's advices.  there's no particular code it crashes at.  it just crashes at any code. therefore, for me to "fix" the database, i'll have to delete all the code.
i tried to reinstall the office, but it wouldn't. it says that "accwiz.dll couldn't register properly".
so far i have done the following things:
1.uninstall the office and  manually deleted all the leftover files.
2. installed the office and after i gave me an error, i went and manually registered the dll with the registry. it still crashes.
please help!!! microsoft couldn't help
So if you comment out all of your code, then it works?

If so then if you then add one line in, it crashes?

I have never had that experience, I could always comment out all of my code and then comment line by line back in and it has always been the case that my application would generate the error on one line of code.

So now you don't even have access anymore, good grief.  All I can really offer at this point is reinstall windows and access....     are you using access 95 or 97?
Are you sure this isn't a security issue?  I'm looking at your original statement that you can't create a new form.  Are you having any problems running an action query?  You may not have update rights to some or all of your database or indeed to anything in its directory.

well, i am thinking about formatting the harddrive. yes, that is how bad the stuff is.  
the problem with the commenting out the code is that there are about 4000 lines of code in the db and i am really pressed for time.
now security. i have administrative rights to the database and to my computer, therefore i strongly doubt a possibilty of security problem. however, you may be right. that's why when i was trying to reinstall office i logged in as our system adm. it still didn't work , though, he has 100% rights to everything in the company.
please help, i know it is a very unusual situation, but i am totally helpless. thanks
This has been happening to me regularlily since I upgraded to Lotus Notes V4.5.2. Prior to that I had never seen it before. It crashed more often when Notes is running but it happens even when Notes isn't running at all.

Access can crash on simple databases that have no code at all,  and this morning I've been using Visual Basic and it's crashed on me twice in an hour.

What version of Notes are you running? Does anyone think it may have something to do with Lotus Notes V4.5?


Umm... what's in the NOTES.RIP file after it crashes?
Below is the NOTES.RIP of one of this morning's crashes.  It's very long - I hope I'm not breaching any etiquette by posting all this.

kimd, my notes.rip is somewhat similar to yours, only it is about 10 times longer, that's why i don't want to post it. i think you may be on the right track as far as lotus notes. people in my company use 4.1 version, i think. however, i am not sure if it is installed on my computer. i personally don't use it for sure. anyways, what do you think i can do about it?
Is is possible that the database file itself is corrupted. May be you should create a new file and import everything from the old one.
Also if you are formating your harddrive (bad eh) anyway why not create two partitions (with two OSs)  Put Lotus on one, Access on the other. I think it is even possible to prevent one copy of NT from seing the other if they are on different partition.
Sorry, I've got no idea what to do about it. I'm not even convinced that Notes is causing the problem...it may be just capturing the error better than Microsoft can.

Sorry it's taken so long to respond, I've been away skiing.
