Hi guys! Strangest thing I've seen yet - I'm running pro bono a linked file database for a wildlife hospital in Australia. I have a Form in which there are several fields for vets to enter data about a wildlife patient. One of these is the Collection Plan (for the patient). This is a memo field from the TBL_Accession. The Collection Plan is written in straight English on the input form, but the data entered into the table is completely reversed, reading "etinuer ot ovra siht pu/p ot ronod". (Sorry! Have not got enough posts to include a snippet) Translation for the line here is "donor to p/up this arvo to reunite". Has anyone got any idea what might be the cause?
 
Sounds like the input form is applying a function (such as StrReverse) to reverse the text before saving it to the table- if you view the table via the input form does it read correctly?
 
Or perhaps Leonardo da Vinci wrote the text? :D
