'Article ID: Q109396

Creation Date: 02-JAN-1994

Revision Date: 19-SEP-1996' The information in this article applies to:


 * Microsoft Access versions 1.0 and 1.1

SYMPTOMS

If two or more modal pop-up forms are opened and closed, the screen can become distorted or Microsoft Access can stop.

CAUSE

The problem occurs if both forms' Modal and Popup properties are set to Yes, and the forms are opened with the OpenForm action with the Window Mode argument set to Dialog.

RESOLUTION

Either change the OpenForm action to open the forms as Normal instead of Dialog, or change the forms' Modal and Popup properties to No.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Access versions 1.0 and 1.1. This problem no longer occurs in Microsoft Access version 2.0.
