    Corrupted Databases

    Not tried this, but you'll find that most anti-virus software already has checks for the virus in them, so as long as PCs have anti-virus software, it shouldn't be anything to worry about

    Export to Excel problem

    I wonder if this is because access is only exporting the values of the underlying table, not sure if Access is capable for exporting calculations based on reports. Try doing some calcs in your query to see if it exports these.

    How calculate subtotal/grandtotal

    The overflow error occour when access is trying to perform a calcuation outside of the variable range. Look through each of your queries and search for the word #error, in any of the fields, you will probably find that their is a calculaton being performed that access doesn't like. /0 for example.

    Lock Count Exceeded Problem

    Have u tried disconnecting the PC from the Network and running the process just in case. Also worth making sure that their are no linked tables in the database, in case something has sneaked in, which might still be connecting to a file on the network somewhere.

    LOTUS APPROACH

    Unfortunately their is no easy way to migrate Lotus Approach to Access, you can move the tables over into access, but you will have to redesign all of the forms and reports and relationships yourself. If their is such a tool out their, the chances are it will cost you quite a bit.

    Corrupted Database

    This may not be a corrupt database, your program appears to be using a OBDC link to your access database, see if you can open the database in Microsoft Access and compact/repair their.

    Permission Problem! Help on Security needed.

    Check to see if their is a workgroup file that belongs with this database. If their is one, you will need to join the workgroup, type in a password, and then hopefully it will allow you to view/convert the database correctly.
