Robert--

The Access 'Compact and Repair' function has tp open the database before it
can do its thing. The JetComp utility doesn't have the restriction, so you
may be able to fix it with this. Hours, huh? That's not a good thing. How
large is the database, anyway? Even if it's huge, I can't imagine running it
all night will help things; it's obviously 'stuck' somewhere. You *do* have
a solid pre-repair backup of the file, right? :)

Lee & Jim-

The compact and repair option is about 60 percent done, judging from the
progress bar. It is has been running I read Lee's suggestion hours ago.
Doing a Control-Alt-Delete and checking the status, it says it is "Running."
It reached where it is hours ago and has not noticeably progressed even
though it is "Running."

Therefore then, let it run all night and leave it alone? Would that be a
good idea? Or force it to stop and try the "JetComp utility"?

Thank you.

Robert

Robert--

I have to agree with Lee Joomi in that you should try to repair the database
file. But rather than just rely on the the intrinsic Access 'Compact and
Repair' function, you may be able to use the better (and free) JetComp
utility offered by Microsoft (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/273956).

Good luck...

I made a table in Access 2000, and used the wizard to create a form with the
intention of 'editing' the form.

The form was made, but whenever I attempt to open it, it opens and as soon
as it opens all the way, it reverses, closes, and Access exits

Can I correct this? I can't use it if it won't stay up long enough for me to
enter and edit data.  <g>

Thank you.

Robert
