Text duplicating itself in text boxes on subform.

[news.microsoft.com]

I've googled this one high and low, but can't find a similar hit.

Client opens employee record with Address subform embedded.
The screen shot they sent me shows the data corrupted as follows,
with an diminished copy of the text tacked onto the end. Imagine
the following, but without the spaces, which I added for clarity.

City: Madisonville adisonville disonvi
State: KYY
Zip: 42431 2431 431 31 1

You can view the actual screen shot here ...

Has anybody ever seen anything like this? If I told you it happens
on an Access app running under Citrix, would that make a difference?

Mulitpost? I like to call it a parallel post.

After not getting any immediate hits on that one, I decided to repost
without
the reference to Citrix. I was afraid people saw the Citrix reference and
decided they didn't have anything to contribute, but realistically, it may
have
nothing to do with that.

I can't reproduce it myself. It was reported by a client who uses our app.
No other clients have ever reported it. In fact, as far as I can tell, no
one
in the history of Access has ever reported it.

I'm afraid that if this one doesn't jump out at you, there is no way to
deduce
what's happening, let alone fix it.

Danny,

I've never seen that happen before, but you can check out the following
multipost for possible answers :

As a shot in the dark, do you get the same behavior if you update the
subform RecordSource instead of using the Link values (when only one
user is on)?

Think you're right about that!

Maybe it's like that room in the Zork caverns where everything you say
echoes...

Ha ha. The users call this the "echo" problem.
