SYMPTOMS

When you output a module, or a form that contains a subform, the focus is not returned to the Database window. You are most likely to notice this problem if you use the keyboard, instead of the mouse, to select objects and issue commands.

 * From the Help menu, choose About Microsoft Access, then press the ESC key.
 * From the File menu, choose Output To, then press the ESC key.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Access version 2.0. This problem no longer occurs in Microsoft Access for Windows 95 version 7.0.

MORE INFORMATION

Steps to Reproduce Problem


 * 1) Open the sample database NWIND.MDB.
