MS Access crashes when filtering a table or SELECT query

Hi Shane,

Hmm, that might be difficult as it is a government database with confidential information in it.  However, a number of people are reporting the same problem - and it is definitely a 'new' problem as I have been working with the same database for a number of weeks and never encountered this problem until now.

I have worked with MS Access since 1989, so I am pretty familiar with the normal problems and how to fix them.

I can see if I can reproduce the problem with a more 'generic' database and send that to you.  However, it might take me a while as i am in the middle of a big project right now.

thank you!

Laurie

Hi,

Would you be willing to share your database (or a stripped down version) for us to investigate?

I have been unable to reproduce the problem you describe so far.

If you submit in-product feedback (Feedback, on the Help ribbon), and include "CorinneSevern" in the feedback so I can find it, then I can contact you and we can coordinate a way to submit your database.

Thanks,

I notice this also happens when I right click on an object's title bar to change the view.

Had done that procedure before but did it again.  Seemed to help until this morning - CRASH  - main problem shows "MS ACCESS Exception Code c0000005"

-potential memory issue - did memory check - no problems found-

Will uninstall/reinstall Access when I get a chance.

I think Microsoft has caused a problem with this months Office update just like they did a few weeks back when everything was crashing until the fessed up and sent out a special fix

Recent build 12325.20288 is suspect based on when issue started.

I agree that it seems to be a problem with the latest release.  I didn't have any problems like this, even on a database with over 100,000 records, but recently Access has been closing/re-opening even when working with smaller tables (5,000 rows).  It works fine if I stick to queries, so will do that for now, but this is getting old.

Microsoft needs to do a better job of testing their office updates to MS Access before releasing.  The November release and now this one both expose issues that one should be able to detect fairly quickly during testing.

I did the decompile/compile procedure a few days ago.  I had several crashes since then.

But, I have had no crashes for the past day & a half despite running numerous select queries that seemed to always crash before.

Still running Version 1912 Build 12325.20298 - hard to believe Microsoft would sneak in undocumented fix.

I hope that I am not being overly optimistic.   Anyone crashing today specifically during select queries or filtering which is where is thread started?
