[AccessD] WIERD little problem

Yes, that sounds interesting. It's a small office, and only 5 people would
be using this database. I'd like to look at your programming if you could
share it.

Meanwhile...Why would I not be able to print a report for 1 date and not
another. A puzzlement!

Hi Karen:

Coming at this slightly differently... I worked on a system where if a user
stays on a station with no activity for say, 1 hour, the station, unloads
the tables, closes the forms and places them back at the application login
prompt. (This method was developed at a client's request who got tired of
always discovering one of her employees had left the 'Invoicing' application
open, running on the station and had gone back into the warehouse or off for
lunch.)

Would a process like this resolve similar db application issues before they
can develop?

Jim

I have a simple little scheduling database, front end and back end. I tried
to print a report for tomorrow - a simple list - the database crashed. For
some strange reason I cannot print the reports I need for tomorrow, although
I could print reports for different dates - just not for tomorrow. It closed
itself down and tried to compact itself and send a report to MS. 

At that point, I discovered that one of staff left open the front end with a
little popup form from which you can view or print the reports wide open. I
got her out of a meeting to shut down her open Access and then deleted the
backup copies and the .ldb files. I could compact/repair the BE but not the
FE. 

Has anybody had anything like this happen before? Any suggestions? I need to
mention that I can't send the database to anybody for inspection because of
confidentiality restrictions (I work in a jail health clinic).

Thanks in advance.
