The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

The Grade of the Solution
The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
The Number of Author and Expert Comments
The Number of Experts Contributing
The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Index dissappearing!!!

Asked by anthonyc in VB Database Programming

I have deployed a system in the field, in which 2 users (of about 1000) have reported that they keep getting an "index not found" error. I got their access DB in house, and sure enough, the primary key of one of my tables was missing, and I was attempting to do a seek on the index. The relationships that used that primary key are also gone.

Our system runs continuously (they do reboot every so often, but they also leave it up for days at a time). Every 3 days, during the middle of the night, I have a background process that runs, tells all the clients to shut their DB connection down, and then compacts, and signals the clients to restart. All of our inhouse testing, and the other 998 clients have no problem.

Both of the clients in question have a "network" setup, which means they have more than work station using the DB.... Basically, one workstation has the software and the DB on it, while the others have just the software, and point to the DB on th eother workstation.

Does anyone know of any reasons why an index would dissappear?
