Database corruption

Good day

Ever since our company moved to WinXP, our shared access databases are going crazy

Applications that were working well on previous versions are getting corrupted just because a change is made or an update is done

I want to know if there is a reported bug for WinXP or Access on this matter

I'll appreciate your suggestions

Best regards

Probably OpLocks. Could be mismatched Jet DLL versions.

For more information on corruption including possible causes,
determining the offending PC, retrieving your data, links, official MS
KB articles and a list of vendors who state they can fix corruption

Thank you for your insightful response.

My question now is: where do I disable the OPlocks? Do I install the patch on the server or the workstation?
I'm not the network administrator.
