Corrupt Data

[Guest]

I have multiple users entering information in a table through a form.
Actually the users enter the information on form and then an append query is
ran to append to a table.

Recently some of the data in the table is enter as these odd characters like
this:
A㌵㤸㤴

Does anyone knows what is going on? Thanks for any help.

Lamar,

I've had the same situation a couple of months ago. After confirming that no
new chinese employee was hired i searched for every possibility what could be
causing this problem. Eventually i ended up with replacing the data with a
backup and from that point on everything went as usual. So not a real
solution but just a sharing thought... ;-)
