What is this error message? 1

[khwaja]

I have database which was working fine until yesterday but when I open it today and tried to select all data in one of its queries to drop it on the spreadsheet, I received the following message. Once this message is on, it does not go away, until I terminate the whole application.


Reserved error (-1517); there is no message for this error.

OK Help

Could someone shed light on this?

Thank you very much for the direction. However, you and others who read this might find interesting that I narrowed down reasons for this to happen and I discovered that one of the link tables in the query had a field which was causing problem. I went into that table, deleted the field, saved the query and added field back in and then it worked fine. I did not compact the database but I might do that to prevent this hapening.

Cheers
