Explorer, and that data access page contains a function that is not available
outside Access, you may receive the following error message: Data Provider failed executing a provider
command. The previous message is then followed by the
following message: Undefined function
'{FunctionName}' in expression. However, when you open a
data access page by using Access, the error messages do not
appear. CAUSEWhen you open a data access page by using Internet Explorer,
certain Access-specific functions are not available. As a result, you may
receive the error messages that are in the "Symptoms" section.
For
example, you receive the error messages if a data access page is based on a
query that has an expression that contains the Nz() function, the EuroConvert() function, the Eval() function, or a user-defined function.
You may also
receive the error messages if you use one of these functions in a control (such
as a text box) on a data access page.WORKAROUNDNote This is a known limitation of data access pages. You
can work around this problem with two of these functions, Nz() and Euroconvert(). Nz() and Euroconvert() may be added as methods of the Microsoft Data Source Control
(MSODSC) object. If you want to use the Nz() method or the Euroconvert() method in a data access page, you can use the following
syntax: Euroconvert Method Syntax
MSODSC.Euroconvert(50,"FRF","EUR",False,3)
Nz Method
SyntaxMSODSC.Nz([NumericValueHere],0) STATUS Microsoft
has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed
at the beginning of this article.
