Issue that this hotfix package fixes

This hotfix package fixes the following issues that are not previously documented in a Microsoft Knowledge Base article:

• Access 2007 stops responding when you put the focus on a null date field on a database form that is created in an earlier version of Access.
• On a client computer that is running a Japanese version of the operating system, Access 2007 may stop responding when you right-click the subform on a database form.
• In an Access 2007 database (.accdb), when you try to import all the objects from an Access 2003 database (.mdb), you may receive the following error message:
  There isn't enough free memory to update the display.
• In Access 2003, you create a report for an Access 2003 database. When you open the report in Access 2007, the report does not appear the same as it appears in Access 2003.
  
  This problem occurs when the following conditions are true:
  • You add a line control into the Detail section of the report in Access 2003.
  • You set the value of the top property of the line control so that it is the same as the height of the Detail section.
