I have a program that is distributed to 25 of our centers around the country.
The program a survey tracking program with lots of reports and the main
tables are a survey header table and a survey question table.
The program is buttoned up and has the coding in it to not allow the shift
key bypass etc. I also have a user tracking log in it so I can tell if
someone got in the back door somehow.
The db is a traditional front end linked to the back end tables (both are
buttoned up tight) and it is in 2002 all running on the XP professional
desktops.
The problem that has happened at the same buidling 5 times in the last 2
months is that the relationship is lost between the survey header and the
survey questions tables and also the key locks that are on the survey
questions table (record # and Question #) to prevent duplicates are also
removed. The way it is found out is that duplicates show up on the survey
entry form.
Question is what can cause this to happen and what can I do as a programmer
to prevent it? I should note that there is one front end for the data entry
and another that is used for the reporting...2 copies linked to one back end.
None of the other buildings are having this problem with identical programs.
