 A setting somewhere Perhaps?

I must have set an option somewhere and can't remember where, but when I
start to enter code into the VBA window I am getting strange results.

IE:  Normally when you enter docmd.  the options for this will pullup.  Mine
pulls up for a milisecond and then is not visible.

IE: When I do any thing that requires a text  such as if A = "B" then the
program puts in the " " before I can type the text and I must type the
first " and then the B" and then erase the double "'s the program put in.

Might have to do a repair or reinstall but thought I would ask first.

Any help is appreciated.

Chas,

not sure, but it rings a bell, check if forms with timer events are open while
entering source code; closing them MIGHT solve the problem
if not, I don't know

I already had the same problem when there was a form which was open
with a timer on it. When the timer starts the code for the first time,
the problem persists until that form is closed.

Hope it helps..

or the Timer is cancelled, by setting TimerInterval to zero.

That was the problem.  Thanks to All.
