    Unable to compact database

    Access Compact often fails under Vista Another great leap forward that Vista has given us (excuse the sarcasm) is that it sometimes (but, even more frustratingly, not always) decides to intervene - after about 3 microseconds - when you are trying to do some standard task in Office with the...

    Access 2003 queries on Vista

    Access 2003 queries on Vista
