Disk Or Network Error

[AmritPaulSingh]

I have an access database that is used by mulitple users at different locations.

The users use the database through citrix and they quite often get a "Disk or Network Error".

There was a backend end and one front end to the database.

I made multiple copies of the front end, one for each user as I thought that would get rid of the problem. But it didn't.

Then I unbounded all forms from the tables and hard coded all table activities through VBA. This reduced the error but did not get rid of it.

Could anyone please tell me the reason for this error and how I could get rid of it?

Thanks in advance for your help.

(I googled your error message - I don't know any more than you!!!)

I took a look at the article but really couldn't get much out of it.
Thanks for trying though

I've had this identical error with Access 97 and Citrix/WTS over NT4. I believe your problem lies with opportunistic file locking. See a newsgroup thread for my detailed error messages, just to confirm it's the same thing you're seeing. When you're satisfied, head over to

Let me know how it fares with you.
