RE: Compacting Question
I have that same problem on several PCs that have installed MS-Windows XP
(SP3) with MS-Access 2002 (SP3).
Here's the error message: http://daniel-summars.com/msaccess_error1.gif
The error occurs intermittently with many different MS-Access database
files, and also on multiple different computers running MS-Windows XP (SP3)
and MS-Access 2002 (SP3).
However, it occurs less frequently when the database.mdb file is copied to:
C:\Documents and settings\UserName\Local Settings\temp\
When copied to that folder, the frequency of the error is less, but still
occurs.
I have not been able to reproduce the error on a PC with Windows XP (SP2).
Also, this problem seemed to appear after installing MS-Windows XP SP3 on
the computers that are experiencing the problem.
