Unrecognisable file format URGENT

This database was deleted by accident, but recovered by easy recovery
professional software. Then, when I tried to open it hit me with this error.
I already tried to repair and compact my database but it won't let me open
it. It gives me the same error every time I try to do something with it.
Is there any chance to recover this DB?

Make sure, of course, that you're not trying to open a database in the
Access 2002 file format with Access 2000, or the Access 2000 file format
with Access 97.

See if any of the suggestions here help:

Have you tried importing all objects from it into a new, blank database?
I don't really expect that to work if you're getting that message, but
it can't hurt to try.
