Utility.mda is used in Access 2.0. Definitely not Utilities.mda (not an 8.3 filename). -----Original Message----- From: Erwin Craps [mailto:Erwin.Craps at ithelps.be] Sent: Monday, August 04, 2003 2:29 PM To: Access Developers discussion and problem solving Subject: RE: [AccessD] The Dreaded "Error Message: Error AccessingFile.NetworkConnection May Have Been Lost." Hi Charlotte I seen the Utilities.mda reference to. At my recollection Utilities.mda is an referenced library that was used in, I believe, Access 2. If you convert a A2.0 database to a more recent version the reference is still there.

There seems to be some oddness built into the 2002 version of vbe6.dll. In a machine with NO Office 2000 ever installed on it, I will sometimes see a reference to the Utilities.mda or one of the wizards in the project explorer pane. I have no idea where they came from because if I close Access and then reopen the database, the phantom references will be gone. On my personal machine, I haven't seen that error message since I installed SR3, but I have seen the same kind of phantom references. When I spot them in A2k, I shut the session down immediately just as a safety precaution.

I forget who wrote it now, but I disagree with a recent statement to the effect that "VSS is overkill for single developer projects." No it isn't, and now you know why. The alternative (which I have used extensively as well) is a new MDB|ADP every hour or so, named and dated as such (i.e. My_App_20030801_A.ADP). Either way the most you lose is an hour's work. Way back (and I mean way back) in the days of CP/M, I used WordStar. I was writing a screenplay, doing an all-nighter, and my housemate awoke and plugged the toaster in, blowing the fuse onto which my computer was wired and costing me six hours of ostensibly brilliant writing (when you lose it, it's always brilliant)! Learned then, haven't been prone to a loss bigger than an hour since. May you be able to say the same soon.

NetworkConnection May Have Been Lost." Well it just happened to me, and I have about 11 hours worth of work that maybe lost (is lost from what I have been reading) The problem is that I did have the "Office 2000 Service Pack 3" installed. So since MS says this will stop the problem from happening in the future, and obviously it does not, how can I protect myself.. Such a pain....!!!! What cause the corruption.... "Save As" some reports..... Any pearls of wisdom??
