[AccessD] VERY strange LDB issue

Hi Drew

Well, if it ain't the hardware, the software, the network nor the ldb
file, you'll have to reboot the user or, eventually, drop and recreate
him. Very effective, so they say. Cures a lot of related issues as
well.

Nope, in fact, I setup BOTH of his machines, his laptop a few months
ago, and his desktop about 2 years ago.  Not that I'm perfect, but I
know I didn't set it up for anything unusual.

Any chance that the report writer guy has his machines set up for a
non-European region?

Ok folks, here's a doozy for ya'll.  Our IT report writer is having
some
issues with a few .mdbs.  In troubleshooting the issue, we have
discovered
that whenever he is the first person in a database, the .ldb file comes
out
with gobbly gook.  If someone else is in the database already, the .ldb
file
will be fine, and his machine and access user name will be put at the
end
like it should be.

 

Now, this happens from two different machines that he is logged into
(his
desktop and laptop) and over EITHER the wired or wireless connection.

 

Here is an example of what it will show:

 

****P*************n*************

 

That is the contents of an .ldb file that he is the first one into the
.mdb
for.

 

Any ideas?
