#Deleted record on Database
I am using Access 2007. On one of my databases there is a record embeded
that has #Deleted in all fields. I tried to manually delete the record, but when I close the database and reopen , the bad record is still there. All queries fail when trying to read the database. I've tried to run a delete query but it fails too. Help. |

#Deleted record on Database
My guess would be it is because the table or query is not editable (has the
asterisk and arrow at the bottom un-highlighted.) To get around that, pull the info into a query then make-table to create a table that is editable. Then delete the record. -- Milton Purdy ACCESS State of Arkansas "Steve." wrote: I am using Access 2007. On one of my databases there is a record embeded that has #Deleted in all fields.

Here's the error msg:
Record is deleted. (Error 3167) You referred to a record that you deleted or that another user in a multiuser environment deleted. Move to another record, and then try the operation again.

Or is it linked to some other backend database? More info please! -- John W. Vinson [MVP] |

Steve, create a new table, and import the good records, without referring to
the bad one. Details: http://allenbrowne.com/ser-47.html#RowsShowDeleted -- Allen Browne - Microsoft MVP.
