Can a corrupt Access database cause problems with other other applications or computer and if so how? Personally I don't believe it can, but was told this by one of our IT guys.

Other than may be file in use problems, can't see it myself.
Access being a desktop DB can if poorly designed use up a good lump of network bandwidth or memory, but that has nothing to do with it being corrupt.

You answered my question exactly. That was my point to the IT guy; I do not use outlook with the DB; I do not use Visio with the DB; Thank you so much;

outlook can work with access to collect data requested via email to recipients and if the db is corrupted can effect collection. I really think its access the collects from outlook but its oranges and tangerines, you get my meaning.
