I have a DB used by 10 users. Daily for the last few weeks, we have received
an error when opening the DB that the file has been corrupted and must be
restored. The file is set to compact daily. Any ideas why I keep receiving
the restore error?

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Is the database split into a front-end stored on each users' PC and a
back-end stored on a server?

Are users properly closing the application when they are finished, or are
they shutting down their computer or using CTRL-ALT-DELETE and ending the
application?

Are you using a wireless LAN?

Is the LAN fast and reliable?

Could be many factors unfortunately. Rick B has mentioned the most
important ones.

For more information on corruption including possible causes,
determining the offending PC, retrieving your data, links, official MS
KB articles and a list of vendors who state they can fix corruption
see the Microsoft Access Corruption FAQ at
