After migrating from SQL to Access new users keep getting this error whenever they post a message:

Microsoft VBScript runtime error '800a005e'
Invalid use of Null: 'CDate'

Please help me overcome this problem, your response shall be appreciated.

Why migrate form SQL to Access?

Access absolutely sucks as a database backend for a forum and you should really stick with SQL Server instead of downgrading.

I changed hosting provider and went to a hosting that does not support SQL. Then I ordered an MS Sql db and tried very hard to bring it back but I could not so I cancelled that hosting. Now I don't have an MS SQL database.

I replaced access database with my existing one and it worked fine for existing users but new users keep getting that error when they post. Not only that, but they mess up other users' topics after posting into them!! Could you please tell me what to do to get rid of that error? Thanks

I believe I have answered this for you in another post earlier today.

Please don't double post.
