Following events happened:
After installing "How to skip mailing labels" MS 299024, I tested it and it worked properly.

When I tried the data base later it would not open and send the message that it was corrupted, but it would not repair by itself.
I shut down Windows, and the computer would run scandisc at startup with lots of messages and XP did not start any more. A repair using the CD was attempted.
Did anybody experience something like that before. I can hardly belief that I can corrupt windows using a VBA script in a data base. Now I an scarded to use this VBA script again. I am runnung a Raid System with mirrored discs. All the other data were still available (on both discs)

Thanks for any input.
