[AccessD] VERY strange LDB issue

Ok folks, discovered something new.  Turns out, the odd characters are
Unicode.  So some machines (like mine, and most of our users) are
writing to the .ldb file using Unicode, some are not.  What's odd, is if
I go into the database first, Mike's machine (our report writer) will
add it's info to the .ldb just fine.

Now, the reason I was looking into this, is that we've had some odd
issues with one or two big report databases. (Databases have a few local
tables, but mainly use ODBC linked tables to our Oracle Production
database).  Very odd issues.  Reports that should run in a few seconds
taking 5 to 10 minutes to run.

The only real change made on our network is that over the Thanksgiving
weekend I moved our file server to a bigger server, but it was
'restored' to the new server, so all the setting should be the same.

Any more thoughts for database quirkiness?  I've turned off AutoCheck
and record level locking, hoping that might doing something.

I'm shooting in the dark here....
