Corrupted Database

[Luke Bellamy]

Hi - my Acc2002 mdb is corrupted. I've tried all the tricks I know
(including Tony Toews tricks)
and I believe it's the forms, reports, or modules that are corrupted (not
data).
There are alot of apps on the web that repair the tables (data) but not many
that
look at the forms and code etc.

Can anyone recommend a good app or company that can repair mdb files (2002)
with bad forms, reports, or VBA modules?

Thanks,
Luke Bellamy

None that I know of. Although I certainly could be wrong. AFAIK
retrieving objects other than tables, and possibly queries and macros,
is far more difficult than retrieving tables, etc.

For example the VBA code is now, IIRC, saved as a single humongous row
in a system table.

Best wishes on this problem.
