[AccessD] Odd Behavior on one profile on one machine

[Charlotte Foust]

It's been turned over to the network people to reinstall Access as an
attempt to fix it.  I have no idea what would be involved in getting them
to fix a registry problem.  This is a State department, so everyone is
using Windows 7 Pro and Office 2010.  Updates are rolled out by IT and no
admin privileges for users or developers on the individual machines.  I
agree with Jim Dettman that JimB is on to something.  I suspected a profile
issue, but it has to be a local one because he's using a roaming profile on
other machines.  I personally can't do a darn thing about it, but I needed
arguments for when it gets kicked back to the Access team as our problem.

Thanks guys,
