Database Issue

[Lamar]

I have about 9 networked databases both 1997 and 2003 MS Access databases.
All of sudden two databases (one is 1997 and the other 2003) could not even
open (it would just freeze up). The only thing different about these
databases from rest and what they have in common I use an add-in library
called "Winfax Library Access 97 and 2003" from
http://www.groupacg.com/ACGWFL.htm. I think this is the problem. I needed
to remove the reference from the database to open it but I can not open the
database.

Just FYI - Users enter information in the network database then my computer
(the only one with a license and Winfax) faxes the information off.

Any help is appreciated.

Before doing anything else, make several copies of each database. Try
opening the databases with the Shift Key held down. The shift key bypasses
all code and references. You mentioned networked databases. Hopefully those
are all split databases with the tables only running on the server and
everything else running from a front-end on each workstation.

dude you've been living on borrowed time for a long time.

JET Isn't reliable enough to use in a business environment.
I'd reccomend moving to SQL Server

JET just isn't stable enough for a single user and a single record.
