Hi,
Try using JetComp.exe, see following:
ACC2000: Jet Compact Utility Available in Download Center (273956)
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=KB;EN-US;273956
If the above utility does not work see the below articles:
ACC97: How to Troubleshoot Corruption in a Microsoft Access Database
(306829)
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=KB;EN-US;306829
ACC97: How to Repair a Damaged Jet 3.5 Database (279334)
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=KB;EN-US;279334
And if that does not work locate a data recovery specialists performing a
internet search for keywords "Microsoft Access", "Database", "Recovery",
and "Corruption"
I hope this helps! If you have additional questions on this topic, please
respond back to this posting.
