This thread shows multiple reports of the same kind of runtime "out of memory" problem affecting Windows/Office apps across different setups. Posts from and indicate the symptom can arise for different reasons; 's compatibility note highlights that missing or mismatched dependencies are a frequent root cause. Below are concise, prioritized checks and safe fixes that address the most common and fixable causes.

  • Back up the database/app files before making changes.
  • In the VBA editor check Tools -> References for any library marked MISSING; fix or uncheck it, then use Debug -> Compile to expose undeclared references.
  • Run Compact & Repair to fix corruption and free space.
  • Split the database (front end/back end) or reduce the number of records/forms loaded at once.
  • Remove or link large embedded OLE objects and images instead of embedding them.
  • Replace Variant types where possible and prefer Long for counters (VBA Integer is 16-bit).
  • Look for infinite loops, deep recursion, or code that loads entire recordsets into memory; step through the button's code in the debugger.
  • While reproducing the problem, monitor the application process in Task Manager or Process Explorer for memory and handle spikes.
  • Repair or reinstall Office components (DAO/ADO/MDAC) and apply the latest Office/Windows updates or service packs.

Helpful diagnostics to include in follow-ups: exact Office/Access version and service pack, Windows edition and bitness, a copy/listing of Tools->References (note MISSING entries), the exact Subroutine behind the failing control, whether Debug->Compile shows errors, whether Compact & Repair was attempted, and a brief Task Manager snapshot showing the app's memory at failure. Common cautions: always work on a backup copy, avoid blind registry edits or regsvr32 calls, and test repairs on a copy or spare machine. The items above make targeted troubleshooting far easier.
