Symptoms

Consider the following scenario:
  • You have a computer that is running Microsoft SharePoint Server 2010.
  • You have Access Services enabled in SharePoint Server 2010.
  • You publish a Microsoft Access 2010 database to Access Services.
  • You add a new record to a table in the database.
  • When you add the record, you receive a type mismatch error in the USysApplicationLog:

    Category: Execution
    Context: error_expression
    Description: Type mismatch
    ErrorNumber: -8084
    ObjectType: Macro
    SourceObject: Access_table.field
  • Then, you open the database by using Access 2010 and then add a new record to the same table
  • When you add the record, you receive the following error in USysApplicationLog: 

    Category: Execution
    Object Type: Macro
    SourceObject: [Access_table].[field]
    Description: Failed to evaluate expression 'error_expression': error value '#VALUE!'.
    Error Number: -8990
    Context: error_expression
In this scenario, you notice that Access Services and the Access 2010 client generate different error codes for the type mismatch error.
