Ouch!

Really? No advice except change dbms?

Yes, Access MDB and ACCDB is total and utter crap.

It doesn't work with 10,000 records.
I was brought into save a client that had _25_ mb of data.. at each of
12 different offices throughout the nation.

Peoples Access would constantly crash / corrupt... it wasn't possible
to keep it up... And I had been doing Access for 5 years fulltime
before this-- so don't you bother 'oh did you disable name-
autocorrect- style crap.. I mean if your database isn't stable, your
database isn't stable. End of story.

No more corrupted records.
No more emailing spreadsheets around-- just keep all the enterprise
data in one place- a SQL Server at each site.. and rinse and repeat.

I don't know to whom or what you are responding, but if it is Aaron just
ignore him. He will go away eventually. In the meantime, a complete
question gives you the best chance of a useful response.

No, not if you ask Aaron. That's his answer to all questions. It's sometimes a
correct answer, I'll agree; but there are other opinions for lots of
questions.

Hi,

I don't think is the end of the world. If unfortunately the Access
database currpts, there is a tool called Advanced Access Repair you
may use. I have used it to repair many corrupt Access MDB files on my
damaged disks successfully. Its homepage is http://www.datanumen.com/aar/
It works rather well.

1) You also work for that company. Posting without disclosing any
connection is highly unethical and sleazy.

2) If you are going to spout the same response each time I would
suggest using Notepad to save your text. This helps reduce the
chances of spelling mistakes.
