ACC1x: "Welcome to Microsoft Access" Screen Disables Status Bar

 Last reviewed: May 28, 1997
Article ID: Q94393
The information in this article applies to:
  • Microsoft Access versions 1.0, 1.1

SYMPTOMS

When you start Microsoft Access with the "Welcome to Microsoft Access" screen, the status bar will not show whether the CAPS LOCK and NUM LOCK keys are on or off.

RESOLUTION

If you turn off the "Welcome to Microsoft Access" screen, the status bar functions normally. Another workaround is to close the screen, then switch the NUM LOCK and CAP LOCK keys off then on. This will reinitialize the status bar.

STATUS

This behavior no longer occurs in Microsoft Access version 2.0.

MORE INFORMATION

Steps to Reproduce Behavior

  1. Turn on the CAPS LOCK and NUM LOCK keys.

  2. Start Microsoft Access with the "Welcome to Microsoft Access" screen enabled.

Note that the status bar does not show whether the CAPS LOCK and NUM LOCK keys are on.
