Just curious if anyone else has come across a similar instance. At this stage
I do not suspect Access (or me!) is at fault but here is what has happened...
On Friday a split ACC2003 db (local mde FE's, mdb BE on network) encountered
corruption of a single record. I noticed a few people also talking about poor
network performance around the same time so suspected maybe a network fault
was to blame.
This morning a couple of users of identical, but different db's (i.e own set
up of identical BE/FEs), have mentioned that data they added to records on
Friday afternoon seems to have been lost. My initial thoughts were that the
network guys have surreptitiously completed some kind of system restore and
overwritten the files with a slightly older backup copy.
However, another long-term experienced user reported that data in an old
combined ACC2000 db that also sits on the network and is purely for
archive/referal purposes, has also gone missing so now I am not quite so sure.
In short we are talking about four different db's, various users (some new,
some experienced), and two different versions of Access. I suspect it would
be a mistake for me to assume all problems are down to the same cause e.g.
maybe someone's been cut and pasting from the old database instead of copying!
No ones threatening to lynch me yet, but I'm sure if this happens again a
queue with soon form.....
Not sure there's an answer, just interested in any thoughts..... :o)
