Corrupt adp-file

[Guest]

I've got an adp-file that seems to be corrupt. When I try to open the file, I
get the message "The file is not in the correct format for a Microsoft Access
project"
I tried compact/repair and /decompile, but nothing works.

Is there any way to uncorrupt the file?

Thanx,
Bert

More than likely, the *.ade file is made with newer version of Access than
you are running.

I know, but one hour before the corruption I was still working on it...
The adp (not ade) is created in Access 2002.
Also under Acc2003 the file will nog open.

tia,
Bert

You can try the old trick of creating a blank new ADP file and importing
everything into it from the corrupted file. Works often.

Thank you, but this time not...
When I try importing, I get the same message.
