i cannot delete a row

[Guest]

A row contains wrong data (in Chinese !) : I cannot erase it, not delete.
Iget the message : "the searchkey was not fund in any record"; and it closes
the base ...Thank you very much

Your database has probably become corrupt.

First, take a copy of it, and store that copy somewhere safe. Then, you
can go back to that copy, if your attempts to fix it make it worse.

Then try repairing & compacting the database using the relevant options
under the Tools menu, and see if that fixes it. If it doesn't, try
creating a new database, and importing all the objects from the bad
one, into the new one.

TC,

John Vinson in addition had recommeded that we append from old to new all
records except the corrupted one of course. How is this done since we should
keep the corrupted table away from the new database and its newly imported
contents?
