Word Update 934173
Office 2007 Service Pack 1 - Changes

Description

When you try to use Data Access Object (DAO) code to synchronize a replicated Access
2007 database, you receive the following error message:
Run-time error '3251':
Operation is not supported for this type of object.

When you use a Microsoft Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) macro in Access 2007 to
update records in a Microsoft Jet 3.x database, you receive the following runtime error
message:
Run-time error '3001':
Invalid argument

In Access 2007, you open a Microsoft Office Access 2003 database that contains a custom
shortcut menu for a subform. Then, you right-click the subform. When you do this, the
default shortcut menu is displayed instead of the custom shortcut menu

When you try to run a Microsoft Access project (.adp) in Access 2007, the project may
run slowly. Or, the project may take longer than expected to respond to actions that are
performed on the project

You close or compact and then close an Access 2007 database. Then, you reopen the
database. After you do this, you cannot use some menus or some menu items.

When you click the Add New Field column in the main datasheet, Access 2007 does not
take focus out of its subdatasheet. Therefore, the data type of the most recently focused
column in the subdatasheet is changed when you try to add a new column to the main
datasheet by using the Data Type drop-down box.

When you use the Label Wizard in Access 2007, you receive a security prompt. If you click
OK on the security prompt, you receive an error message. If you click Yes on the error
message, you are returned to the Label Wizard. When you try to finish the wizard again,
you may receive another error message.
In Access 2007, you receive the following error message when you try to execute a query
that contains parameters:
Access 2007 returns only the first page of records from a User Information table. The first
page of records contains no more than 2,000 records.

In Access 2007, the page controls for the transparent tab are not transparent. This issue
occurs on any Microsoft operating system, such as Windows Vista or Windows XP, that
has themes turned on and enabled by default.
You install Access 2007 and Microsoft Office Access 2003 on the same computer. When
you run Access 2007 after you run Access 2003, Access 2007 takes several minutes to
repair itself.

After you run an update query that sets an AutoNumber field to Null in Access 2007, and
then you compact the database, you can still update the AutoNumber field data. This
issue may result in the loss of data. After you compact the database, the
MSysCompactError table is created. This change should remove the ability to update
AutoNumber fields.

When you open a form that is bound to a Microsoft Office SharePoint table, it is possible
to add data to the form. However, when the form is closed, the data is lost. This behavior
does not allow you to add data to a form in a read-only database in Access 2007. The
form is bound to a SharePoint table.

When you open a custom shortcut menu bar in a form in Access 2007, the shortcut menu
is missing. Additionally, you may receive an error message that says that the shortcut
menu does not exist when you open the database again.

When you import Outlook contacts into Access 2007, unexpected characters may appear
on the Mail Merge Recipients dialog box
This problem occurs when the Outlook contacts contain some Romanian characters.

Fields that are bound to time-intensive expressions appear blank in Access 2007. These
fields are empty until you click the textbox or until you click anything outside of Access
2007 if the following conditions are true:

• The Control Source property of a textbox uses the DLookup() function.


• The query that is called by the DLookup() fuction references a control on a form.

Text fields are detected as memo fields when you paste some text fields from Microsoft
Office Excel to Access 2007. When Access 2007 detects columns that have fewer than
255 characters, "fields of type" text is created.
This issue also occurs in any language version of Access 2007 that has the Bulgarian
regional setting enabled.

When you programmatically select an item in a List box on a form, the selected item does
not become visible if it was not visible before you selected it in Access 2007.
In Access 2007, the click event for an image control does not work when the image
control is inside a tab control.

You cannot use the OpenRecordset function to open some DAO database objects
through Open Database Connectivity (ODBC) connections in Access 2007
The behaviors of the StopAllMacros macro action and the StopMacro macro action are
swapped in Access 2007.
You create a macro that uses the DoCmd.SelectObject method to select an object in the
database by name. If you specify the name of an object that does not exist in the
database, you do not receive an error message. Additionally, nothing happens.

When you try to import a large .CSV file, such as a file that is larger than 30 megabytes
(MB),, Access 2007 appears to stop responding at the import dialog box. After a few
moments, you may receive the following error message:

"File sharing lock count exceeded. Increase MaxLocksPerFile registry Entry"

When you click OK to close the error message, you can usually finish the import process.
All records are imported successfully.
When you import data from an Excel spread sheet into Access 2007 by using the long
integer data type, the number 1 is incorrectly added to some numbers.
In Access2007, the modified date that is displayed in the Navigation Pane for all objects,
except tables and queries, is never updated.
When you try to convert an .accdb file to an .mdb file, nothing happens. No error
message appears.

When you change the Enabled property of a checkbox on a form by running a macro that
uses the SetValue action, you may receive the following message when the sandbox is
enabled:

Access failed to evaluate one or more expressions because 'Enabled' was referenced in
an expression. Only functions and properties that are considered to be safe are allowed
in expressions when Access runs in sandbox mode.

For more information on sandbox mode, search for "Sandbox mode" in Access Help.
When you open a database in runtime mode, the floating UI for attachment controls and
for formatting in rich-text enabled fields is not displayed correctly.

When you update referenced cells, you update the literal cell address instead of the
referenced cell. This issue occurs when you update Excel data through the ISAM
programatically.

When you try to delete multiple objects by using the delete option on the context menu,
database objects that were not selected may be incorrectly deleted.

You cannot use code that uses the index of the item in a list box to set the selection.
If you send an "update existing data" e-mail message that contains a Yes field and a
Nofield, a system that uses non-English language settings cannot process replies to the
message. This is true if the user does not manually localize the value within the "Yes/No"
field.

Additionally, the "yes" string and the "no" string are not localized when you create an
HTML Data Collection form that contains a boolean field.

When you try to delete a record in a sub-form that is embedded in a main form, the row
is longer displayed. However, the record is actually not deleted. If you press F9 after you
delete a row in the sub-form, you will receive the following error message:

Operation not supported in transactions

When you add an attachment field to a table, you may receive the following error
message:

The Microsoft Office Access database engine could not find the object.
Make sure the object exists and that you spell its name and the path name correctly.
This issue occurs when the field has a union query that has more than one union on
tables with complex data.
When you set the data type of a new field to a non-text type, such as Attachment, in the
Datasheet view, Access 2007 may stop responding

When you return to the property sheet after you change the RecordSource property,
Access 2007 may stop responding
The issue can occur after you click Builder in the property sheet to open the QBE.

When you run a Microsoft Visual Basic application that has an Excel 2007 worksheet in a
OLE container control, the worksheet is rendered outside the OLE object boundaries.
When you try to use arrow keys to move the cursor in a text box in Excel 2007, the cursor
moves in the opposite direction.

When you use Microsoft Office Excel 2007 to open a Microsoft Office Excel 2003
spreadsheet, shapes that have a custom color in Excel 2003 have a different color in Excel
2007. The custom color frequently reverts to a default color in Excel 2007.

You save a workbook in Microsoft Office Excel 2007 while in Page Break Preview view.
When you open the workbook in Microsoft Office Excel 2003 and then try to change to
Normal view, you receive the following error message:
Microsoft Excel

The number must be between 10 and 400. Try again by entering a number in this range.
You create a chart that contains a secondary value (y) axis label in Excel 2007, and then
you save the workbook in one of the following formats: • Excel Workbook (*.xlsx)
• Excel 97-2003 Workbook (*.xls)
When you open the workbook in Microsoft Office Excel 2003, the secondary value (y) axis
label is moved to the primary axis of the chart.

When you use the CallByName function and the VBGet Call Type constant to
programmatically return a chart series or another chart object in a Microsoft Visual Basic
for Applications (VBA) macro in Excel 2007, you receive the following error message:
Run-time error '438': Object doesn't support this property or method.

You use the Microsoft Active Accessibility 2.0 Software Development Kit (SDK) Tools to
create a custom solution to programmatically determine the position of the cursor in a
cell. The cell is in an Excel 2007 worksheet or in a Microsoft Graph worksheet. To move
the cursor into the worksheet cell, you use the arrow keys, or you press TAB. When you
do this, the custom solution incorrectly determines that the cursor is at the center of the
cell. This is true if the cell is selected but text has not been typed into the cell.

You have a linked Excel object in a Microsoft PowerPoint presentation. If you update the
object in Excel, and then you click the Close button (X) in the upper-right corner of Excel,
the Excel object in the PowerPoint presentation is not updated. However, if you save the
object in Excel before you close Excel, the Excel object is updated as expected in the
PowerPoint presentation.

When you open a workbook that contains calculations in Excel 2007, the workbook may
stop responding (hang). Excel 2007 may stop responding on each calculation in the
workbook.

Note If you open the workbook in an earlier version of Microsoft Excel, the calculations
complete successfully in a few seconds as expected.

You experience slow performance in Excel 2007. This issue occurs if the following
conditions are true: • A chart contains lots of data points.
• The value (y) axis is fixed.
You experience slow performance in Excel 2007. This issue occurs if the following
conditions are true: • A chart contains lots of data points.
• The value (y) axis is fixed.

When you open a workbook that contains a chart that includes a polynomial trendline,
parts of the formula that are higher than the third-order are missing.

When you format a series in an area chart that has a border, part of the border may be
missing.
You reposition data labels in a chart in Excel 2007. Then, you save the workbook in the
Excel 97-2003 Workbook (*.xls) file format. If you close the workbook and then reopen
the workbook, the data labels in the chart are moved to a different position. Or, the data
labels are missing.

When you open a workbook that contains a chart that has axis labels in Excel 2007, the
axis labels may be truncated or missing.

In Microsoft Office Excel 2007, graphics do not appear in .mht files that are created by
using Cognos Impromptu. For example, images, graphs, and charts do not appear as
expected in an Excel 2007 workbook.

In Microsoft Office Excel 2007, the major scale axis units, the minor scale axis units, and
the maximum scale axis units adjust at different chart heights than in Microsoft Office
Excel 2003. Therefore, charts may not have a uniform appearance when you convert an
Excel 2003 chart to Excel 2007.

You use the Microsoft Excel 4.0 Get.Chart.Item macro function to retrieve the position of
series data points in an Excel chart. When you run the macro function in Excel 2007,
incorrect chart point data is retrieved.

When you open an Excel workbook in Excel 2007 by using a hyperlink that contains a
query string as part of the URL, you may experience one of the following symptoms: •
You are incorrectly prompted that the workbook that you are trying to open is in a
different format than the file name extension specifies.
• You are not prompted that the workbook that you are trying to open is in a different
format than the file name extension in the query string specifies.

You open an Excel 2007 chart that is embedded in an Office document such as a
Microsoft PowerPoint presentation. You change the zoom level of the Excel chart to less
than 100 percent, and then you close the Excel chart and return to the Office document.
When you open the embedded Excel chart again, the position of the chart area may have

In OneNote 2007, you use the text recognition feature to obtain text that is contained in
pictures. When you paste the text onto a page, OneNote 2007 parses the text as if it
were in the default language of the version of OneNote 2007 that you are using.
Therefore, the spelling checker reports many misspelled words.

For example, OneNote 2007 is installed in English. When you obtain Spanish-language
text from a picture, OneNote 2007 parses the Spanish-language text as if it were English.

You insert a picture into a page in OneNote 2007. At the same time, OneNote 2007 is
indexing other content. In this situation, OneNote 2007 does not index the text in the
picture until it finishes indexing the other content. Therefore, text in the picture does not
become immediately searchable.

Additionally, OneNote 2007 may consume some CPU resources if it tries to determine
whether it has finished indexing the other content. For example, OneNote 2007 may
consume about 20% of CPU resources.

After you open a notebook that is shared by multiple users in OneNote 2007, a memory
leak may occur.

For example, if you leave the notebook open for a whole day, the memory usage for
OneNote 2007 increases from 35 megabytes (MB) to 608 MB.

Consider the following scenario. You have a notebook that is shared by multiple people in
OneNote 2007. The notebook is stored on a server. On the server, a user inserts a shape
into the notebook. At the same time, another user inserts a shape into the notebook on a
client computer.

In this scenario, when OneNote 2007 merges the changes, it discards the shape that was
inserted into the notebook on the client computer.

Note This issue also occurs for the shape of the Ink Serialization Format (ISF).
You install a language pack on the English version of OneNote 2007. When you insert a
file as a printout, you receive the following error message:
Print driver is not correctly installed.
This problem occurs because OneNote 2007 tries to find a printer whose name is
identical to the language of the language pack. However, no printer has this name.
Therefore, OneNote 2007 cannot locate the correct printer.

This problem also occurs when you change the name of a OneNote 2007 printer.

On a client computer, you open a document library on a Microsoft Windows SharePoint


Services 3.0 site. The document library uses the "Microsoft Office OneNote section"
document template. Additionally, the Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 site requires
credentials.

When you click New Document, OneNote 2007 starts. However, OneNote 2007 does not
create any section or open any notebook.

You have a computer that has Microsoft ActiveSync installed. You use the screen clipping
feature in OneNote 2007 to capture a screen clip of a Web site in Windows Internet
Explorer 7. When you do this, the screen clip may contain an incorrect URL and an
incorrect tab name.

You have a OneNote 2007 notebook that is stored on a Windows SharePoint Services
site. You open the notebook by using a Universal Naming Convention (UNC) path. When
you work in the notebook, you may lose data.
You cannot scroll through documents in OneNote 2007 by using the scroll wheel of some
wireless mouse devices.

You open a OneNote 2007 file. You click Add to Dictionary to add a misspelled word to
the custom dictionary. When you open the file on another computer in read-only mode,
you receive the following message:
This section contains changes that cannot be synced because access to the section file is
denied. Correct the file permissions or save your copy of this section elsewhere.
When you right-click a OneNote 2007 file and then click Print, the file is not printed. Or,
you cannot insert a OneNote 2007 file into a Live Meeting session.

A page contains a ghost bullet in OneNote 2007. The section that contains the page is not
read-only. When you open the page, the section is saved unexpectedly. Additionally, if
the file is stored on a Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 site, Windows SharePoint Services
3.0 sends a notification that the file has changed.

If the file that contains the section is read-only, you receive the following message:
This section contains changes that cannot be synced because access to the section file is
denied. Correct the file permissions or save your copy of this section elsewhere.
On a computer that is running Windows Vista, you open a OneNote 2007 file that is
stored on a Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 site. If any problem occurs in Windows
SharePoint Services 3.0, the file is opened in read-only mode. Therefore, you cannot edit
the file.

You open a OneNote 2007 file that is corrupted. However, the information bar that warns
you about the file corruption may not appear. Therefore, you do not realize that the file
is corrupted. If you change the file, the changes may be lost.

When you click a OneNote 2007 protocol handler to open a remote file, you do not
receive a message before OneNote 2007 opens the file.

In another situation, the OneNote 2007 protocol handler is inside the IFRAME element.
When you click the OneNote 2007 protocol handler, Internet Explorer opens the file
without notifying you.

Note A OneNote 2007 protocol handler has the following format:


onenote:// Link

In the release version of OneNote 2007, only the following languages are enabled for the
text recognition feature: • Dutch
• English
• Finnish
• French
• German
• Italian
• Norwegian
• Portuguese
• Spanish
• Swedish

You have a OneNote 2007 file that is stored on a Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 site.
You open this file in OneNote 2007. Then, you copy a hyperlink to an element in the file.
For example, you copy the hyperlink to a notebook or to a section in the file. When you
do this, the hyperlink may not work.

Consider the following scenario: • You configure the text recognition feature to use a
language other than the default language of OneNote 2007.
• You configure the Windows input language to be the same language as the language of
the text recognition feature. However, the Windows input language has a different
dialect.
• You use the text recognition feature to obtain text from a picture.
In this scenario, when you paste the text, the text is always in English.

Daylight saving time (DST) for Western Australia starts on a different day in 2007 and in
2008 than it did in 2006. In 2007 and 2008, DST starts at 2 A.M. on the last Sunday in
October, and DST ends at 2 A.M. on the last Sunday in March. This hotfix package fixes
Outlook 2007 so that it automatically adjusts to these DST changes.

You use the Plan a Meeting wizard in Outlook 2007 to plan a meeting in which multiple
resources have been added to the meeting request. If you click to clear the resources
that you do not want Outlook to try to book, the resources are not removed from the
meeting request. Additionally, Outlook continues to try to book the resources.

the Reading pane when Outlook is started. In this case, Outlook may spike the CPU until it
is closed and then reopened. This issue is fixed in SP1.
A meeting organizer updates a meeting while another user has the meeting open. When
the update is accepted, the meeting may disappear or may display the wrong time in the
calendar.

If a meeting organizer changes the time zone of a meeting, he or she is no longer given
the option to save the changes without sending an update. This condition could result in
attendees having different meeting times.
If an attendee is in a different time zone than a meeting organizer, the organizer's time
zone is stamped on the meeting.

Programs that try to access the PST file or the OST file through regular Win32 APIs cannot
access the file. This issue prevents any automated backup of PST files while Outlook is
running. This issue was fixed in SP1.
Duplicate appointments may appear in a user's calendar without the user taking any
action.
A user's computer may hang if the user runs Outlook 2007 on Windows Vista and
connects over a slow connection. This issue was fixed in SP1.

the following error message: "An unexpected error occurred during command
execution."

In Project Professional, you access the File/Open dialog box and then select the Group By
list. When you do this, you may not see all the available fields, and there is no scroll bar
to allow you to navigate through the list. A scroll bar has been added to the dialog box to
allow you to see all the values.

When you use the Project Task Information dialog box to change the resource for an
existing assignment, the assignment GUID changes. This causes a problem when trying to
access the original assignment GUID, such as when another application updates or
modifies assignments.

If you create a multiple-day task and then enter zero actual work for the first day, the
task is rescheduled as expected. However, if you enter zero actual work on the second
day, nothing is recorded, and the task is not rescheduled.

Baselines take a very long time to save or are not saved at all. This issue may occur for
complex plans, such as plans that have a large number of custom calendars, long elapsed
duration tasks, and so on.
Using a graphical indicator in a Project Center view, the field may not display the correct
value for the Project Summary task.

If you are using a remote Local Cache folder, and if you lose network connectivity, a new
local cache folder is created. There is no error message. The next time that you open a
project from your local cache, the plan is not listed. Now, a message is displayed that
tells you about the problem and states that your data will be lost.
When you copy data from Excel that includes blank cells and then paste the data into
Project, you may see garbled text.

When you modify an enterprise resource custom field value for a local resource, save the
plan, and then re-open the plan, the field value may revert to the original value.
