    I have developed a Front End application using Access 2002 SP3 with a Jet 4 backend .mdb. The size of the .MDE FEnd is abt 3Meg (after compact & repair) while the BEnd is abt 1 Meg. The program works very fast and is very stable in XP Window. However in an Win98 environment (around 120Meg RAM), it frequently displayed the green screen alerting Critical Fault with details showing either GDI.EXE, Kernel or USER.EXE.
    In case of MsAccess having problems with GDI.EXE a reboot plus a fresh copy of the application is required while the other two can be run again with any reboot.
    Also for the GDI problem because if occur at the splash screen, I recreate the splash form and from then the GDI problem stopped.
    The application in Win98 use the following libraries: ADO v2.5, ADO RecordSet v2.5, Office v10.0 DAO 3.6 besides Acces v10.0.
    Appreciate any views as there is no solution after tinkering all options. Thanks in Advance.
    Cheers!

    Hi FuzMic, a very specific problem. Do a "Find" on GDI.exe and User.exe, right-click on them and go to Properties, see how they may relate to Access.

    Just reread your question. You seem to be a program developer, we are an end-user "troubleshooter" (Windows specific).
    If someone around here knows their "Jet 4 backend .mdb" you may have some luck.
    I hope my suggestion may be helpful.

    Matt
