ACC97: Buddy Properties for UpDown Control Do Not Work in Microsoft Access (161402)
The information in this article applies to:
This article was previously published under Q161402 Novice: Requires knowledge of the user interface on single-user computers.
SYMPTOMS
When you use the Microsoft UpDown Control, version 5.0, in Microsoft
Access 97, you cannot use any of the Buddy properties of the control.
Depending on what you are trying to do, you may receive one or more of
the following error messages:
Microsoft Access can't find the field '<name>' referred to in your
expression.
BuddyControl must be a separate control within the same container.
BuddyControl property must be set first.
Invalid property value.
CAUSE
The Buddy properties of the UpDown control are not supported by Microsoft
Access 97. The Buddy properties contain specific functionality that is
supported in Microsoft Visual Basic. In Microsoft Word 97, Microsoft
Excel 97, and Microsoft PowerPoint 97, this functionality is also
supported in an UpDown control on a UserForm that you have created in
Visual Basic for Applications.
RESOLUTION
Do not use any of the Buddy properties of the UpDown control in Microsoft
Access 97.
