I'm new creating applications using Visual Studio 2010 and Microsoft Access 2007. I already created forms and it runs smoothly without getting any errors. However, one of the forms is having trouble in displaying the information I want to display. All of the created forms have the same functions but then this one form is not functioning well.

This is the screenshot of the form that is not functioning: enter image description here

Screenshot of the error message: enter image description here

Please help. Thanks.

For an Access database, that particular error (IErrorInfo.GetDescription failed with E_FAIL 0x80004005) generally means that you are trying to access a field or table that doesn't exist or is a keyword.

I suspect that the error may be the position field. If you surround all of your field names with brackets, the error will go away if it was a keyword conflict:

SELECT [position_code], [position_description] FROM [position]

If you put your column/table names inside braces that should fix your problem. (Position is a SQL reserved word.)

select position_code, position_description from [position]

First of all you have to verify the name of fields and table. May be they contain unsupported text or characters. If spaces are added with these fields and table name then enclosed these identifiers with [].
