No Current Record

G'day Guru's,
A colleague at work has a Access 2002 DB which was up until last night,
working fine. However, now when he tries to open it, he gets an error
message "No current record". I have tried bypassing the start-up options,
compact and repair and importing into a new database but still get the same
message with each thing I try.

If I create a new DB and make an append query to this 'Corrupt' database, it
works fine but I can't link to it!!!

Has anyone and ideas on A) what caused this and B) how to fix it?

TIA,

Mark

I would if I could but that does nothing either. Like I said, I am bypassing
start-up options so no code is running but still get the same message!!!

Hello Mark,

Does it let you proceed normally after the error message? And what
does the following mean exactly:

"If I create a new DB and make an append query to this 'Corrupt'
database, it
works fine but I can't link to it!!! "

Does this mean you create a second database with linked tables to the
corrupted database?

Have you tried decompiling (see
http://trigeminal.com/usenet/usenet004.asp for more info) then compact
and repair?

No it does not proceed normally. There is just the access container visible,
no database window.

I can't link to the database but if I create an append query (where you have
to select the source database and table) in a new database, I can append
data to the corrupt database!

I have not tried a decompile. If I can get to this option, I will give it a
go. Thanks for the suggestion!!

No, that's not true. If you shift-load the application, NOTHING

On second thought, I guess it's possible that an add-in or another
referenced module (Tools/References) would load and take an error.
What happens if you load the Northwind sample application?

If you load the northwind or any other database, there's no problem at all.
I did add a reference to his app ("Microsoft DAO Object Library") but that
was some weeks ago. Do you think that this is the problem? Do you know how
to fix broken references?
Thanks,
Mark

Be sure to compile your app (Debug/Compile).

Well, it *could* cause a problem if the order is such that DAO is
first in the list and the code is written for ADO, instead.
