That would normally only happen if you were running multi company, perhaps there is a strange entry in the company file that needs clearing out?

hi,
could you tell me the name of the company file and could I edit it using notepad?

The company file is called company, it has no file extension and you can edit it with notepad.
In v9 it is almost certainly in your local sage installation directory.

Try deleting the bit of "junk" on the second line
switch off access rights and see if it stays off now.

with one blank line after it.
