Darryl,

Thanks for the insights.

At least knowing that someone else has seen this makes me think that I
am not losing my mind  :-)

Hi Mark,

I have seen this sort of thing on corporate NASDrives on servers before.
They seem to come and go randomly - I always assumed it was some sort of
artefact created during backup or syncing by the server itself.  Perhaps
the server takes a snapshot of the last known saved version and keeps it
as a temp file so it can back up stuff whilst folks are still working on
their files? - just guessing here.  Often Right Mouse Clicking and
choosing "Refresh" will clean them up (or at least in my experience). 

Cheers
Darryl.

Possibly - I can't recall for sure.

I think that I had just opened up a folder of Access accdb files and
noticed the strange file names.

They really stood out as I have no other files with names like 449X228

Any chance that somehow the font got changed within Access?
