RE: unexpected error from external database driver (22) Jerry Whittle 16.09.2006 00:27:01 There went my first good idea. Try moving the database file to another computer will Access on it. If you can get it to work there, then the problem is with your computer's install of Office or Access. If it's still acting up at the other computer, then it could be a corrupt database file. -- Jerry Whittle Light. Strong. Cheap. Pick two. Keith Bontrager - Bicycle Builder.

RE: unexpected error from external database driver (22) JJ 18.09.2006 11:16:02 I did try to open it on a different computer since this database is on a shared drive & still showing the same error message. I also have Office 2003 re installed in my PC but yes it does give me the same error message. You think it's a corrupted database? What's your suggestion to correct it?

RE: unexpected error from external database driver (22) Jerry Whittle 18.09.2006 12:29:03 As you have the same error on two different machines plus reinstalled Office, corruption is most likely. Tony Toews has an excellent web page on database corruption. http://www.granite.ab.ca/access/corruptmdbs.htm Allen Brown also has excellent info on corruption. http://allenbrowne.com/ser-47.html I have a white paper in a Word document named Fix Corrupt Access Database towards the bottom this page: http://www.rogersaccesslibrary.com/OtherLibraries.asp -- Jerry Whittle Light.
