Windows Forms - Hope to get an answer here

Hi,

I tried looking for an answer for this scenario at windowsforms.net but NO LUCK. Can anyone help me on this:

I have an MDI application with the back end as MS Access database. I connect to the database using ODBC connection. When the application is deployed on other Windows XP machine it works perfect but when i install it on Windows 2000, it does not allow to login and says "Object Reference Not ... " which happens definitely i believe because it is not able to connect to the database. What makes it to happen so .. do i need anything else to have with Deployment package for win 2000.

I also tried by installing win 2000 service pack 4... but no luck :(. I also tried installing MDAC ServicePack 8 .. still no luck ... what is it with .net application :(

Thanx,
ImranHi,

not entirely sure but for winforms you can also ask on these forums:windowsforms.net.

Grz, Kris.
"Object reference not ..." means that you are trying to access an object that has been declared but had not been initialised. You are probably catching an exception on the object creation and then continuing to process ...

... post some code for more help.
