Hi all

Our Access 2000 project database has performed well for a number of years.
However, with the arrival of Office 2007/2010, certain functionality has
either been dropped or renamed rendering certain of our existing forms far
less useful.

Is there any kind of filtering/assessment software that can be used to
identify non-supported features?
Elements that are failing include the Find Record (binoculars) button and
coded output to Excel.

It would be useful to be able to identify all weak points and get them fixed
rather than resolve some and then have users discover other failings.

Anyone suggest the best approach to modernising this application please?


Thanks

Phil

Those functions should still work. You may have to change your code slightly
for the Excel fuunctionality, depending upon how you are performing that.
