very weird characters appearing

[SusanJane sjl]

I am getting fields populated with very weird characters like:
눭î¾ìš§ã¿±
These are text fields and I change them back to what they should be & then
they appear again.

It's driving me crazy!!!

At times like this, nothing beats a good backup. In fact make a complete
backup of your database now and put it away for safe keeping.

Tony Toews has an excellent web page on database corruption.

Allen Brown also has excellent info on corruption.

I have a white paper in a Word document named Fix Corrupt Access Database
