access thread: Error Message during Compact/Repair


Message #1 by "Kenny Alligood" <kennyalligood@h...> on Wed, 25 Sep 2002 02:57:58
I need some ideas on an error message that is generated each time I try to 
Compact/Repair a DB. The error message is "Could not find 
field 'Description'." -- this message just started last night and so far I 
haven't been able to solve the mystery.

The message points towards a field in the DB named 'Description' but there 
is no such field in any tables, queries, forms, ect -- unless it is a 
System object that I am unaware of...

Any assistance is greatly appreciated.

Is the database replicated?

I have seen this error with a replicated database.

Ken,

Have you compiled your db lately?  Open any module, goto Debug > Compile
and this should find the problem.

I did as you suggested and still got the same error message when trying to 
compact/repair. I did not receive any breaks or error messages during the 
compile either. Any other ideas....?

When we have received this message, we exported all objects, menus and all
into another DB and then compacted.  It appears to work fine.  Maybe a
container issue.
