accessed by multiple users. One user has been having troubles just recently in using a search form I created on the database (his screenshot with the error is attached). Over the last month, when he tries to use the search form, he will occasionly get this error message. When you click the Search button, the form is supposed to pull up a report that is based on a query that has its criteria from the form (hope

that makes sense). But he (and as far as I know, only he) has been having this problem. Does anyone know what may be causing this? Has anyone seen this problem before? And, more importantly, does anyone know how to fix it? Thanks in advance to anyone who can help.

Run Time error 2501 most often occurs when something is Canceled. For example, if a report is sent to the printer using the OutputReport action and the user hits cancel while it is spooling, it will return error 2501, which you can trap. Also, if the OpenForm method is called and something causes the form to cancel opening (either Cancel was set to True during open, or an unhandled error occurs, triggering Cancel = True) then error 2501 is triggered. There are other ways to get 2501, almost all of them involve canceling an operation. I suggest you place an error trap in the procedure that opens the report. If Err.Number = 2501, then the user hits cancel. If the Err.number is anything else, post a messagebox with Err.Number and Err.Description have fun! Todd S. click to email Independent Development C

This database has a TON of macros written that the users http://stackoverflow.com/questions/14129796/how-to-prevent-openform-action-was-cancelled-in-legacy-access-code utilize to help them navigate and enter data. Thus, ditching the code is not step #1 despite the fact that these macros were written in Access 97.... I've managed to get most of the code to work by removing deprecated function calls with new ones, but there are a couple of forms that still do not work correctly. If I can figure out how to resolve one I'm sure I can resolve the others. The main macro has a menu with several buttons. Whenever I click one button I get a "The OpenForm action was cancelled" error. The code for this button is as follows: Option Compare Database 'Use database order for string comparisons Private Sub Form_Open(Cancel As Integer) If IsLoaded("ServiceCircuit") Then Me![PropBtn].Visible = True Else Me![PropBtn].Visible = False End If End Sub Private Sub Form_Unload(Cancel As Integer) If IsLoaded("ServiceCircuit") Then Forms![ServiceCircuit].Visible = True Forms![ServiceCircuit]![CircuitPrefix].Requery Forms![ServiceCircuit]![CircuitPrefix] = Forms![Circuit]![CircuitPrefix] Forms![ServiceCircuit]![CircuitBase].Requery Forms![ServiceCircuit]![CircuitBase] = Forms![Circuit]![CircuitBase] 'Forms!ServiceCircuit.Refresh Exit Sub Else If IsLoaded("DedicatedService") Then Forms![DedicatedService].Visible = True Forms!Dedicat

I had to add a data entry form similar to one that exists so I copied one of the existing forms and made some modifications. When I click the button to open the time error 2501 form to test it I get this error: Run-time error '2501' The OpenForm action was cancelled. Here is the code that is called to cause this error: Private Sub cmdCPE_EntryForm_Click() On Error GoTo Err_cmdCPE_EntryForm_Click Dim stDocName As String Dim stLinkCriteria As String stDocName = "CPE_EntryForm" DoCmd.OpenForm stDocName ', , , stLinkCriteria Exit_cmdCPE_EntryForm_Click: Exit Sub Err_cmdCPE_EntryForm_Click: MsgBox Err.Description Resume Exit_cmdCPE_EntryForm_Click End Sub Thx in advance for any assitance. database vba ms-access-2010 share|improve this question asked May 13 at 13:34 JasonR 1022315 It feels like something got screwed up when the form was copied. If I link the button to a new form it works and opens it fine. –JasonR May 13 at 13:37 Problem is I've done a lot of formatting on this form so to do it all again would kind of suck. If this can be resolved that would be awesome! –JasonR May 13 at 13:37 add a comment| 1 Answer 1 active oldest votes up vote 0 down vote Runtime Error 2501 can occur on calling the OpenForm method if there is a problem with the database.

Posts: 4 Thanks: 0 Thanked 0 Times in 0 Posts DoCmd.OpenForm error 2501 I'm receiving an error when I attmept to run the following code: Private Sub ShowRecord_Click() 'Find a selected record, then close the search dialog box Dim myvar myvar = Me.lstSearch.Column(0) MsgBox myvar DoCmd.OpenForm "PAPER_AUDIT_COMPLETED", , , "[Key] = '" & myvar & " '" 'Close the dialog box ' DoCmd.Close acForm, "searchlist" End Sub I am attempt to pull the value out of a list box for a search query. The Me.listSearch.Column(0) returns the correct value and saves it to myvar, which I verify through the MsgBox. I am then trying to open the form "PAPER_AUDIT_COMPLETED" and run a filter on the Key field for my search results. When I run it I'm receiving "Run-time error 2501" \n "The OpenForm action was cenceled". I've been hacking it to pieces and it works if I hard code it, and it works if I break it so it asks me what myvar is. Anytime I set the code correctly (I think it's correct) it spews out this awefully generic message. I've looked around online and tried a few things to no avail. Any help would be appreciated. #2 (permalink) February 7th, 2007, 05:19 AM anukagni Friend of Wrox Join Date: Dec 2005 Location: CHENNAI, TAMILNADU, I
