At first was speculating that an issue was with some interuption in the network since we experienced some severe storms ect. Server is protected quite well and I am having a problem trying to figure out what is causing these errors. It is not consistent with a particular table, just that it always is a Memo field problem.

We did recently switch over to "Sophos" virus protection and the beginning of this week sat down with network administrator and made sure that our tables were being excluded from scanning, thinking that there might be some kind of issue there. I was assured that they all are now (originally were not all, but some of them). I am not able to determine any user who can be linked to the problem.

You have a damaged memo field. You could try to open each table:

use mytable exclusive
copy to temp
(if you are lucky and it copies without errors, you can continue with:)
zap
append from temp

That should fix it.
