Sorry to repost this but I now seem to have the BE datbase corrupted.
I have a FE, BE database on my home computer and a duplicate on the office
computer. Both use Ak2 on Windows XP. The one at home appears normal.
The BE consists of about 50 tables with numerous relationships and the FE 9
tables (fixed set up stuff) + the 50 linked table from the BE database. At
home on the relationship view I see all the tables and their relationships,
but on the office machine I see only the relationships between the FE
tables. Show all tables does nothing.
If I try adding the missing BE tables they appear in the Relationship window
without the "_1" suffix as if the table were shown twice, so they apparently
aren't hidden somewhere. If I try to set up a relationship, the various
options are greyed out as I would expect as you can't edit relationships for
tables held in the BE DB in the front end.
Compact & Repair has done no good (both Back End and Front End) Creating 2
new DBs and importing everything has equally failed. Has Access gone
corrupt?
New Info:- In Query design on the office computer, the links between the PK
& FK in tables appear as a thin line whereas at home, there are the 2 thick
ends of the link with 1 1 at one end and an ? at the other
In addition I added a member to the member table (via a member form on th
FE.) The member - Mr R Woods appears OK in the table, but if I run a query
SELECT Member.*
FROM Member
WHERE (((Member.MemSu rName) Like "Woo*"));
I get Wood, Woodhouse but No Woods. I tried deleting the name Woods and
re-inputing it in case there was a not printable character hidden there, but
no change.
Mr Woods does not appear on the Member form either.
Deleting the record and re-inputing has cured the problem.
Thanks
Phil
