Problems when Access loses focus when editing...

Got a strange intermittent problem here. Every now and again - say less than once a week. If the user starts to edit a record and then swaps to another application before saving the changes and then swaps back, the current record changes to another.

The form has a tab control with 5 pages on, 2 with sub forms. The controls within the tab control point to the original record, but the controls outside of the tab control point elsewhere...

Re-booting solves the problem, but it will return at a later date.

It's Access 2000 mde database running under Access Runtime. The database is split between data and front end files and user level security is in force.

I can't replicate the problem on my machine, the errors tend to occur on older machines (pentium 200). Is it just a resource problem, or something else?
