Re: running report cause fatal error- on Win98, not XP

In the (long ago!) days when I used Win 98, I used to see this sort of
problem relatively frequently. Access is a resource hog, and Win 98 is
both much less efficient in its use of physical resources (especially
memory) and much more prone to memory leaks than later versions of
Windows. It was not uncommon to have problems on Win98 developing or
running a database which would display no problems under Win 2000,
even on a machine with _less_ physical resources. If your problem is
related to this issue, and it certainly sounds like it to me, adding
more physical memory to the Win 98 system and/or making sure that
nothing else non-essential is occupying memory when you are running
the reports may help, but you may be snookered.

I'm baffled on this one. I have written a Preventative maintenance database
for our shop. I wrote it using Access2003 on my laptop. The computer that
will be running it is older and running win98 and Office 2000. I wrote the
database in Access 2000 format. The database runs 100% fine on my laptop
and the other computers that run XP in our office, BUT on the computer that
will be running it (the older machine) I get a complete access crash when I
try to run a couple of the reports. These are a couple of reports that are
generated by a pretty complex series of queries. Most of the reports are
fine, and print fine, but these more complex reports generate an error popup
and Access shuts down.
I have NO idea where to start on this one, any help would be appreciated.
Like I said, the XP machines run it 100% fine.
Thanks in advance.
