If I compact & repair a FE AK2 database I normally get no problems.
If I set the option to compact & repair it on close, I frequently get an
error saying Field "Description" not found. There is no field in either the
FE or BE called Description. The only reference to "Description" is in VB
where I get the description property of an object (Form, Query, Report etc)

Any ideas please

Thanks

Phil

Don't use C&R on close; you're not the only one having these issues.
The FE database typically doesn't have to be compacted, certainly not
every time you exit the app.
