I have an Access Database. I am using VBA to Open Forms, for example,<br />
<br />
DoCmd.OpenForm &quot;F_Contact&quot;<br />
<br />
This database has been working fine for several days but today I get an error<br />
<br />
This error occurs when an event has failed to run because the location of the logic for the event cannot be evaluated. For example, if the OnOpen property of a form is set to =[Field], this error occurs because a macro or event name is expected to run when the event occurs.<br />

I have an Access Database. I am using VBA to Open Forms, for example,

DoCmd.OpenForm "F_Contact"

This database has been working fine for several days but today I get an error

This error occurs when an event has failed to run because the location of the logic for the event cannot be evaluated. For example, if the OnOpen property of a form is set to =[Field], this error occurs because a macro or event name is expected to run when the event occurs.

Microsoft Access is a rapid application development (RAD) relational database tool. Access can be used for both desktop and web-based applications, and uses VBA (Visual Basic for Applications) as its coding language.

Microsoft Access

Programming includes both the specifics of the language you’re using, like Visual Basic, .NET, Java and others, but also the best practices in user experience and interfaces and the management of projects, version control and development. Other programming topics are related to web and cloud development and system and hardware programming.
