Thank you by the way! I did get this taken care of!

The symptoms indicate that the database is partially
corrupted.
Delete the record, and then compact the database:

If you cannot delete the record, this article describes
various ways of

I have had a problem with a record "turning into
garbage"
so to speak. I have no idea what or how this happened,
this DB is on a server, but one day the users couldn't
access this specific record. The record now contains
only fragments of the original record; most of it
is "gibberish", what appears to be Chinese, or Japanese
letters.
Anyone ever have this happen before and what might be
the
cause?!
THANKS!
