A mysterious yellow circle with red and blue arrows has appeared on some
shortcut icons to forms in an MS Access database.

I've never seen this before, but if I had to guess, it appears to be
something with synchronization judging from the arrows. A screen shot can be
seen at the following address:

Has anybody seen this before?

I don't have direct access to this database, so I can't get in and mess
around with it and figure out what is going on like I usually do... any help
is appreciated.

Looks like Source Control to me.

Thanks for the suggestion George. I don't think that is the case with this
system. There isn't any sort of version control software installed on this
system.

Could it be something with mutual exclusion on the tables?

You're right. I should have taken a longer look.

How about replication?

That definately is a possibility. I'll check with the site to see if anybody
has done this. I'm assuming that simple removiing the database from the
breifcase will correct the problem.

Thanks,
Jerren
