The user probably played around a bit. Perhaps running the security

Get them to send you the secure mdw file that they used.
That is what I thought at first but it looks like it was not the case. The
first thing I tried to do when I got the file was to repair and compact it.
It appears this caused the <unknown> user to appear. To solve the problem I
went back to the original file and just did a 'Save As' from within my vb6
app, which creates a new database and copies data over row at a time. Even
though the database was damaged and repairing it damaged it further, my app
was still able to copy all the data. Lucky :-)
