Hi All,

I have a Access 2000 table with an OLE(embeded) field of word document. One of the records has a corrupted entry for this field (in datasheet mode, it shows "OLE Object" while it shows "Microsoft Word Document" for the others). when i focus to the field it gives me the error "Microsoft Jet Database Engine stopped the process...you and another user are attempting to change the data at the same time" even when i'm the only user of the database.

How can i delete the content of the field for this given record? I tried to do it by utilizing "Compact and repair database service" but it ruined everything (of course i had a backup copy :) )

Please help if you know what i'm going through!

Thanks a bunch,

Ramin
 
This is due to the long value data in that column. You can go through MS article specially written for this issue.
Jet database engine error
