When you save a report to rich text format, the report loses parameter information
When you export an Access 2002 report to rich text format (RTF), parameters that appeared correctly in the report during Print Preview do not export into the new RTF file. The parameters do not appear in the exported document.

When you view data access pages, they do not appear correctly
If you view the data access page for a database, some or none of the expected fields appear correctly. This problem occurs after you install Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0, or after you perform a side-by-side installation of Microsoft Office Access 2003 on the same computer.

You receive an error message after you convert an Access 2003 MDB to Access 2002
When you save an Access 2003 Microsoft Access database (MDB), with an MDE, to the Access 2002 format, and then re-create the MDE for the.mdb file, if you try to use any buttons or other scripted functions on a form, you receive the following error message:

The Visual Basic for Applications project in the database is corrupt.

The OpenArgs function only works one time in a VBA project
If your Microsoft Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) code for a form makes a call to the OpenArgs function after you open the form in design mode, you may receive the following VBA error message:

Run-time error: 94

Invalid use of Null

The DoCmd.ApplyFilter function will not affect the active form after you lock the computer
When you lock your computer while you have two Microsoft Access forms open, when you unlock the computer and try to activate the DoCmd.ApplyFilter function on the active form, the filter will be applied to the other form instead. This problem occurs when the active form uses the OnResize event and the computer is running Microsoft Windows XP.

When you open a data page in Browse view, you receive the &quot;Egenskapen DefaultSort er ugyldlg&quot; error message
In the Norwegian version of Access 2002, if you open a data page in Browse view, you receive the following error message:

This problem occurs if you use one of the following functions on a numeric field: Max or Min.
