This is the error I'm getting, and my network connection is just fine. I'm unable to change any code, I get "Can't perform requested operation." I can't repair the database, get the above message. The only thing I changed was add some more code to a form. I thought maybe there was too much code added, but now it won't let me take any out. Can anyone tell me what could be going on here?
 
Your code is probably not responsible for this error.

What's happened is Jet momentarily lost connection to the server. Windows can recover from such a burp, but Jet doesn't seem to be able to.

If you see this error often on a specific workstation, you may have a cabling problem. Or a crappy NIC -- if it's a RealTek or one of its many pseudonyms, try swapping in a 3Com card and see if your problem goes away.

 
Thanks for the message. I wound up being able to recopy the database and without opening any form, hitting alt and F11 to open the vb window and compiled the code (which it wouldn't allow me to do before). I don't know why it wasn't working, but the database is now working more speedy than it was before!
