    This is now fixed. You will need to restart Access to see the fix.

Please clarify for our bug report.

"But there is a major caveat to this. Other functionality is apparently broken. We have straightforward update queries, for example, the hang indefinitely in these modes, rendering this an unacceptable work-around. "

Does this mean that update queries hang indefinitely in BOTH caching modes?
What counts as a "straightforward" update query?

 

I can't replicate this part of the behavior in a list of approximately 30 records. Can you give us a scenario that would illustrate the hanging behavior?

Thanks.

    Hi George. I was unable to replicate this secondary issue.  It may have been something transient on our end.

    To be honest, I did not do much investigation of this other than to note that it was occurring and and thus it would not be a good workaround for us.

    I have some other PCs that are still on the problematic build so I will investigate to see if I can create a replication scenario.

    We do have some reasonably complicated SharePoint lists with half a dozen or more lookup columns as well as calculated columns, so that might be a factor.
