ACC1x: Cannot Unhide Windows After "Out of Memory" Message

ID: Q90147

The information in this article applies to:

SYMPTOMS

If you receive an "Out Of Memory" error message after you have hidden many Microsoft Access windows you may be unable to unhide, or Show, any of the hidden windows. You will still be able to continue to hide additional windows.


CAUSE

In order for Microsoft Access to show hidden windows, the Windows "Unhide Windows" dialog box must be brought up. This requires memory. If Windows has previously detected insufficient memory and generated an "Out of Memory" error message this dialog box cannot be called. Therefore, you will not be able to choose Show from the Microsoft Access Window menu to unhide your windows.


STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Access version 1.0. This problem no longer occurs in Microsoft Access version 1.1.
