More data:

Both users are running mdes. I was able to reproduce the first problem on
the mdb.  The second one neither the mdb nor the mde.

I see it more with Outlook than I do with Access.

Funny thing the problem is with neither on, at least for me.

It's when I am I using Winamp and I hit a custom programmed Back/Forward Key
on my Microsoft Keyboard.
Those keys were originally meant for webpage navigation, but I reassigned
them to next/prev audio track.
 Every now and then if I am in Outlook or Access (Haven't experienced it in
any other Office app yet) and hit that button (or play/pause) Outlook will
pop up that msg and close.

Maybe a memory issue?

I know you probably aren't having the same issue as me, but maybe it isn't
your db and is something else.

David
