in our company we do have a MS Access database from two years now. It is also shared accross the network and sometimes there may be 6 persons working at the same time.

This last week we have encountered a strange behaviour, some of the tables, at a certain point are completely empty, not deleted but all of the rows are missing. This happened tw times by now, but looks like it will happen again and we don't know what causes it.

Anyone has had this before? Could there be a solution, except from formating the PC :)?

Thank you, Toni

except by accident. The MDB is corrupt or corrupting.
If you google that you'll get lots of hints on how you might rescue it.

Unless you have had some hardware/ network faults / outages it's quite likely access won't cope with the load , it now has.

Again there are number of options from a bit of tuning to replacing it with a proper DBMS.

Can't tell from here.
