Hi Abhi - happy new year
I've never seen this particular error before.
However, the "msys tombstone" may well be teh cause.
Firstly, table names starting "msys" are microsoft "owned" system tables.
This means that the contents may change from version to version - hence we
shouldn't play with them.
I have a feeling that this is not a system table (it certainly isn't a
Microsoft one), and that you have created a table called "tombstone" and
prefixed it with "msys".
Access thinks that this is a system table and is generating your error.
Try changing the table name (remember to change the dependacies too
(queries, macros, code etc).
If this is a big job, you can use a renaming tool like
