Microsoft Jet Database engine stopped.

[Guest]

The microsoft Jet Database engine stopped because you and another user are
attempting to change the same data at the same time.
Two user were not changing the same data at the same time.
Access 03
How do we get around this error?

Given the limited information you have given, I have 2 suggestions. This is a
record locking problem:

Try rebooting your PC. Sometimes after a glitch a lock is left on a table
that will be cleared by rebooting.

Are you changing the data in code on a form that is bound to the same
data?Effectively you are locking yourself out of the data. If this is the
case I need more details to suggest a solution.

This can also be a sign of a memo field corrupting.

See the Locating damage via code section at the following page.
A third method to locate minor corruption, especially in memo fields
is to write some code which loops through the records looking for an
error when accessing the memo field(s).
