"Compile error: The code in this project must be updated for use on 64-bit systems" error message

This error happens when you run a function that is designed for 32-bit only system. If you program the function in Microsoft Access 32-bit system and run it on 64-bit version, you will most likely see this error. To fix this problem, all you have to do is add a keyword PtrSafe before the function name like the following: Private Declare PtrSafe Function GetComputerNameA Lib "kernel32" (ByVal lpBuffer As String, nSize As Long) As Long
