Invalid argument message

Just After trying to enter the table I get the message "invalid argument",
and when I tried to delete the corrupted record (in table and form views),
the program stopped running.

I would try a compact and repair on the database. Start Access, choose Tools,
Utilities, Compact and Repair Database. Compact into a new database so that
you still have the old one just in case. Then try deleting the bad record in
the compacted version of the DB. I had something similar happen and the
compact, followed by deleting a bad record, took care of it.
