This could indeed be the cause. In the past I have copied a live backend to my local drive and found that the working live file was corrupted. Getting all the users to log out and then running a Compact and Repair fixed the trouble. I never make such copies during the working day now. My backup routine is now scheduled to take place when no users are in the system. Time to talk to the network admins.

Application is designed in frontend (on users local machine) - backend( stored on fileserver) format, using Access XP format for both frontend and backend. Corruption occurs when user is editing an existing record. I just discovered, however, that the network backup is running at the same time that these corruption errors have occurred ... Since the backend is stored on the network and is included in backup schedule, if the backup hit the file while they were editing the record ... Could this be the cause of the corruption? I've run office update, checked to make sure that the jet versions are up-to-date. Thanks in advance.
