SOLUTION TO ERROR " Your network access was interrupted. To continue close the database and then open it again." __

So, halfway to resolving...

The error occurred in the function TablesMatch, which is...

Private Function TablesMatch(strFileName As String) As String

    On Error GoTo ErrorHere

    Dim intFlag As Integer, dbLocal As Database, dbBackEnd As Database

    Dim tdLocal As TableDef, tdBackEnd As TableDef, strReturn As String

    Dim strLocalTableStriped As String

    intFlag = False   ' Initial value, process by exception.

    Set dbLocal = CurrentDb

    Set dbBackEnd = DBEngine(0).OpenDatabase(strFileName)

    Set dbLocal = CurrentDb

    For Each tdLocal In dbLocal.TableDefs   ' Loop through local tables.

        If Len(tdLocal.Connect) > 0 Then    ' This is an attached table.

            For Each tdBackEnd In dbBackEnd.TableDefs    ' Loop thru back-end

                strLocalTableStriped = StripPrefix(tdLocal.SourceTableName)

                strReturn = strLocalTableStriped

                'Debug.Print strLocalTableStriped & " <> " & tdBackEnd.Name

                If strLocalTableStriped = tdBackEnd.Name Then

                    intFlag = True    ' We found a match in back-end.

                    Debug.Print "-- Found it! -- " & tdBackEnd.Name

                    Exit For  ' Jump out for next search.

                End If

            Next

            If intFlag = False Then    ' No match for this attached table.

                TablesMatch = strReturn

                Exit Function

            Else    ' There was a match--continue searching next attachment.

                intFlag = False    ' Reset flag for next table test.

            End If

        End If

    Next

    ' If the function reached here, all tables matched.

    TablesMatch = "OK"

ExitHere:

    Exit Function

ErrorHere:

    Call LogError(Application.CurrentObjectName, "TablesMatch", Err.Number, Err.Description, False)

    Resume ExitHere

End Function

The first time this is called from the function RelinkAccess it reports the first table name rather than the status "OK". So clearly a problem. I removed it from the function RelinkAccess (where it checks if all TablesMatch) and ran the contents of the contents of the IF/THEN/ELSE without confirming that TablesMatch. Everything ran, BUT didn't get all tables. (for my reference it crapped out on T09 WHICH WAS A TABLE THAT HAD BEEN DELETED FROM THE BE, BUT STILL APPEARED IN THE FE). Ran everything a 2nd time AND EVERYHTING WORKED FINE.

I just copied a database (Front End and Back End) to a new laptop.

Worked fine on old laptop (Windows 7/64, Office 2007)

Get this error on new laptop. (Windows 7/64, Office 2010)

I am NOT connected to a network

I have both FE and BE in a sub folder of My Documents.

The FE should connect to the BE using code rather than linked table manager.

It works fine on the old laptop, and this code works fine in databases I have sold to several customers.

There is no network. Period.

This is the code. Please excuse the various message boxes I've tried debugging with...

I'm trying to reproduce the problem using similar code against the Northwind sample application but it's not generating an error. Would you be able to make a test version available, stripped to the bare essentials?

Sorry you are upset. Shouting is not going to get this fixed.

Let's try to be rational about it. You claim it's an Access problem; others (and I count myself among them) claim it's a network problem. You don't believe that.

Can we agree on a test? As long as your network is in play the disagreement may continue and you're getting nowhere, so let's take that out of the equation: if you can reproduce the error while all the files are on the local machine, you will have a stronger case to make. Or if you can setup a test at a friend or two's networks and the error continues to appear, you will again have a stronger case to make.

Another way to side-step the issue is to upsize your back-end database to the free Express edition of SQL Server. It "never" corrupts and is not sensitive to network discontinuities.

We have the same error, and only on Win 7 pcs with Office 2010 , all Win XP pcs with Office 2003 in the same location never have the issue. I have tested the network running a constant test and it never drops, but still get the same error as everyone else. So I think its pretty safe to say its not a network fault its something else.
