runtime error 5 in Package Wizard Karen <kskipper[ at ]lamotte.com> 6/15/2007 1:39:18 PM I had to wipe my computer and reinstall everything, OS and all. I have Win XP Pro, SP2, Office 2003 and the Developer Extentions. When I try to run the Package Wizard, I get the following "An unexpected error has been encountered in procedure Form_Load of module Form_frmWizardShell. Runtime error '5': Invalid procedure call or argument." There is an option to open the error log file. These are the contents of that file: -------------------------------- - <dataroot> - <Error> <AppName>Package Wizard</AppName> <AppVersion>11.0.5622</AppVersion> <AppInstallLocation>C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\ADE11\</ AppInstallLocation> <AccessVersion>11.0</AccessVersion> <AccessBuild>5614</AccessBuild> <AppFileName>C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\ADE11\WZADE.MDE</ AppFileName> <IsAddIn>False</IsAddIn> <FileType>MDE</FileType> <ModName>Form_frmWizardShell</ModName> <ProcName>Form_Load</ProcName> <ErrorNumber>5</ErrorNumber> <Description>Invalid procedure call or argument</Description> <Time>2007-06-15T09:37:23</Time> </Error> </dataroot> -------------------------- The error occurs right after I click yes to the security warning prompt asking if I want to open the file. Does anyone know what I need to do to get this running? Karen S

This may be happening if you are not use drive C. OFFXPDEV: "Invalid Procedure Call or Argument" Error Message When You Package a Database That Has Linked Tables http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=304652 ACC2000: How to Resolve Reference Issues in an Access Database http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=310803 This can also be caused by having ODE 97 installed on your system concurrently with MOD XP. Make sure you DO NOT have compression on your package directory, or on the language component directory which you specify. Also ensure you have lots of space on your C drive.

This problem may occur if the package that you try to create is in a language that is different from the language that you used when you installed the Packaging Wizard.

Re: runtime error 5 in Package Wizard "Chris Mills" <phad_nospam[ at ]cleardotnet.nz> 6/21/2007 3:50:08 AM Hi Tony, I recall "runtime error 5 in Package Wizard" as an often-cited problem, sometimes suspected to do with language versions. There is no indication where Karen is based with respect to language. I do not recall ever reading a satisfactory answer to this message, over 7yrs or more, including attempts by Microsoft PSS. A google search might confirm some instances of the question. I have never actually seen, or suffered, the problem myself. I use US version. Sorry to be so pessimistic. Maybe one of your suggestions or URL's may solve it. Even though I use only PDW myself (A97, A2000, A2002), I have been repeatedly warned, including even by Microsoft, that the PDW is not well supported and they would be better using a 3rd Party Installer (Sagekey, Installer2Go, whatever). I have taken this warning to include the obviously unresolved "PDW Error 5". Unresolved (SAY IT!) after many years. Regards (Hope you are enjoying your SHORT summer whilst we freeze down here in NZ winter) (winter seems the same whether we use PDW or not! Why is that?)
