SYMPTOMS
Advanced: Requires expert coding, interoperability, and multiuser skills.
If you try to save a Microsoft Access database larger than 2000 bytes (approximately 2 MB) on a Microsoft LAN Manager server with a boot drive that uses the file allocation table (FAT) format, the following error message appears:
This error occurs only on Microsoft Windows for Workgroups workstations if you attempt to open a database already in use by a Microsoft LAN Manager workstation or another Windows for Workgroups workstation.
CAUSE
The Microsoft LAN Manager server responds incorrectly to a request by Windows for Workgroups to share the file. The server responds with a message that is too long for Windows for Workgroups to process correctly, resulting in an error from the NetBIOS.
RESOLUTION
The following are two ways to work around this behavior:
- Change the format of the Microsoft LAN Manager server boot drive from FAT to high-performance file system (HPFS), then place the Microsoft Access database you want to share on the boot drive.
-or-
- Move the database to a Windows for Workgroups server.
