Well I ran into the vertical bars in my data one time. The table was on the Network and the vertical bars shifted positions in a browse window. You would scroll down and they would be there, scroll past then back up and they were gone. Scroll down farther and they would be on other records. After some testing I found that the network hard drive had some bad blocks. Once the problem was corrected the table was fine.
