PRB: Prompt to Save Libraries After Replace Operation
'Article ID: Q114680

Creation Date: 10-MAY-1994

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


 * Microsoft Access version 2.0

SYMPTOMS

Moderate: Requires basic macro, coding, and interoperability skills.

You may be prompted to save libraries if you perform a global search and replace operation using the Loaded Modules search option.

CAUSE

Microsoft Access replaces text in library modules if the DebugLibraries option is set to True in the [Options] section of the MSACC20.INI file.

This new option was added in Microsoft Access version 2.0 to make debugging libraries easier. It allows you to edit loaded library modules along with user-created modules. The default for this option is False.

RESOLUTION

If you accidentally replace text that you did not want to replace in a library, you can either reinstall Microsoft Access or decompress the library from your original Microsoft Access disks.

If you need to replace text in multiple modules, first remove the DebugLibraries option from the MSACC20.INI file, and then restart Microsoft Access. After the replacement is done, add the option back to the MSACC20.INI file.

STATUS

This behavior no longer occurs in Microsoft Access for Windows 95 version 7.0.

MORE INFORMATION

The decompression program, DECOMP.EXE is on disk 1 of your original Microsoft Access disks. Copy the DECOMP.EXE file to your hard disk so that it is available no matter what disk is in the floppy disk drive.

The syntax for the DECOMP.EXE command is as follows:

DECOMP.EXE For example, use the following command to decompress the WZLIB.MD_ file to the Microsoft Access directory: DECOMP.EXE A:\WZLIB.MD_ C:\ACCESS\WZLIB.MDA The following libraries ship with Microsoft Access 2.0: Library         File on disk -  WZBLDR.MDA       WZBLDR.MD_ WZFRMRPT.MDA    WZFRMRPT.MD_ WZLIB.MDA       WZLIB.MD_ WZQUERY.MDA     WZQUERY.MD_ WZTABLE.MDA     WZTABLE.MD_ REFERENCES
