Have any of you seen Access close unexpectedly on Windows XP machines? My client has a mix of Win98 / Win2K and WinXP machines. EVERY machine with WinXP is reporting the app just shutting down, no warning, no nothing. NONE of the non-XP machines reports this. http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?kbid=320299 reports this problem, but with an error message. My client DOES have some sort of network issues, all the machines (users) have, at one time or another reported the old "disk or network error" meaning they lost connection to the server briefly. In Windows98/2k you just continue on. It would seem that in Windows XP the OS itself will terminate Access when this happens. A tad RUDE don't you think? Anyone else seeing this? John W.
