Design Master Corruption

message from =?Utf-8?B?SGFucw==?= on 24 May 2004
Hi ,

I have set up a design master with a couple of replicas at a client's premises.

But thats not my main issue -

When I open the database it gives the typical MS Access message informing me that I need to compact and repair the database. I select Yes (its my only available option). The database repairs but then loses its state of Design Master!
I then select "Recover design master". It fails saying there is a problem with table "Address" (on of mine of course).

I open up the table and it seems fine, primary key defined etc
I even deleted the table and as a test and attempted the recovery again. But then it simply complained about the next table in the alphabetical list.

Now, when I bring the database back to my office and perform the same tasks, it recovers perfectly.
So it seems there is a bug in the build of access that my client is using.
My build is MS Access 2000 9.0.2720. I don't have the build number of my clients but it was higher!

Are you aware of any issues with versions or could it be something else?

Thanks in advance
Hans
