jet cannot find object

Strange new error and I'm hoping that many others have it :-) so that
the solution is easy.
Until recently I could click on a DBase IV file of type DBF in
explorer and Access would open and the .DBF file would appear as a
table. I could then look at the data contained in the file and its
field names.

This no longer happens.

When I click on the .DBF filename in explorer Access opens. But the
file is not loaded as a table.

I get the error message ' 3011 Jet database engine cannot find object
'filename.dbf', check spelling and path.'

As I have clicked on the filename as usual I cannot have mispelled it
or the path to it. Path is C:\price\filena me.dbf

I have tried current files and archived files that once worked. No
difference.

Worse, I gave copies of current .dbf files and archived files to a
friend and his PC reacts the same.

I have also tried opening Access and importing the files and I get the
same error.

All help appreciated.
Cheers
Kim

Hi, I'm getting some very strange problems with some C# code. We're running an ASP.NET application on a local server in a DMZ.

I am using C# to work with a 3rd party DLL (Nevron Charts), and attempting to serialise it. The serialisation itself is handled somewhere inside the DLL, so to get it to happen you call the Nevron's serialiser and then SaveToStream() which will serialises the chart object into a stream for you, which is all well and good... Now for the problem: If I create a standalone application and use the serialiser to serialise charts it all works fine....

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
