I having increasing problems with Access 2013 crashing.  Even after compacting and repairing the database it crashes all of the time - now it's crashing whenever I try to do a "save as" or when I try to exit.  It's been unstable since I started using it but it seems to be getting worse, and it happens on multiple machines. Anyone have an idea why it's constantly crashing?

    Turns out the database was not in a Trusted Location, once done problem solved.  Glad it's fixed!

    You arrogant clod. 

    On your task list you left out "Buy a new computer", "Rewrite all your existing code", and "Switch jobs, drive a bus for a living."

    MS Access is crashing, dozens of users are reporting it, the bug has been verified, no fix from MS is in sight, and this slapdash list -- which any clown could cook up with a beer in hand and a few moments to spare -- is your idea of a solution. Breathtaking!

    Here's another facile idea: abandon Microsoft altogether as a reliable software vendor.

    You are entitled to your opinion but be aware you are bound by the Code of Conduct of this site. Biting my head off might feel good but does not accomplish anything. Ask me why I made that recommendation and maybe you'd learn something.

    Peace, brother.
