Access 2000 does not delete all deleted files when running compact and repair
database tool. How can I make sure all files marked for deletion are deleted?
I am getting the error message "invalid data format."
 
TMK, Compact and repair only cleans up & fixes the .mdb file. The
process invovles creating a new .mdb file which is duplicate, but
smaller copy of the original. Once the process is complete the original
file is deleted. To that end, what do you mean by the statement 'ALL
FILES MARKED FOR DELETION ARE DELETED'? What FILES are you referring to?
