Hi Steven,
One of my clients experienced a similar issue last week and again today. Today 4 users saw error 3046 when each working in completely different areas of the application. Last week it affected many more users, perhaps because they left it longer before reporting it. I ran the compact and repair on the back end and this appears to have resolved the issue for 5 days until it occurred again today.
Like Ron-St, I am suspecting that this is related to the long standing error 3343 bug:

Perhaps a recent Windows Update has removed the work-around patch from the server? I'll ask their IT support provider to check.
Regards,
David
