This article applies only to a Microsoft Access database (.mdb). Novice: Requires knowledge of the user interface on single-user computers. SYMPTOMSWhen you run a query or add a field to a query in an unreplicated database, you may receive the following error message:
CAUSE
You used braces ({}) instead of brackets ([]) around an object name in your
query. RESOLUTIONOpen the query in Design view and replace the braces with brackets. MORE INFORMATIONBrackets are often placed around the name of a table, field, form, or parameter when you create a query in Design view. If you use braces instead of brackets, Microsoft Access tries to interpret the text between the braces as a globally unique identifier (GUID). Microsoft Access uses GUIDs in replicated databases. If the text inside braces is not a valid GUID, an error occurs. Steps to Reproduce Behavior
REFERENCESFor more information about the use of brackets in expressions, click Microsoft Access Help on the
Help menu, type enter expressions in a design grid in the Office Assistant or
the Answer Wizard, and then click Search to view the topic. Additional query words: prb
