ACC97: Can't Use Back Button in IE3 If Started from Web Toolbar
This article was previously published under Q167852
Novice: Requires knowledge of the user interface on single-user computers.
When you explore a Web page that you select from the Web toolbar in
Microsoft Access 97, the Back button is enabled in Microsoft Internet
Explorer version 3.0, but nothing happens when you click it.
If you use the Web toolbar in Microsoft Access 97 to explore a Web page,
but you do not have a database or a database object open, there is no
current database to reference when it is time to move back. Therefore,
clicking the Back button does not do anything.
Make sure there is a database open when you start Microsoft Internet
Explorer from the Web toolbar in Microsoft Access. Then when you click the
Back button, there will be an open database to return to.
NOTE: In some circumstances, such as when you select or type a Uniform
Resource Locator (URL) in the Address box of the Web toolbar, you must have
an object open in your database first. For example, open a table, a form,
or a module, and then type a URL in the Address box to start Microsoft
Internet Explorer. The Back button will work as expected.
The expected behavior when you click the Back button in Microsoft Internet
Explorer is for that program to close, and for the focus to return to
Microsoft Access 97.
Steps to Reproduce Behavior
The following example assumes that you have Microsoft Internet Explorer
version 3.0 installed on your computer, and that you have a Start Page
configured on the Navigation tab of the Options dialog box.
- Start Microsoft Access 97 and click Cancel, so that there is no database
open.
- On the View menu, point to Toolbars, and then click Web to display the
Web toolbar.
- Click the Start Page button on the Web toolbar. Microsoft Internet
Explorer starts and displays your Start Page.
- In Microsoft Internet Explorer click the Back button, or on the Go
menu, click Back. Note that nothing happens.
APPLIES TO
- Microsoft Access 97 Standard Edition
