Hello, I have an access 2003 mdb file that it say it's corrupted. I tried to
repair it but it gives me the same message. I went back to a backup version.
I had modified 7 reports since this version of the backup. Is there any way
to get the 7 modified reports out of the corrupted mdb. I tried to import
them into a new mdb, but when I go to pick the corrupted mdb to import from I
get the error.

Thanks

Don
 
First, always work on a copy of the database. Working on the original may
make it impossible for a repair service to fix it.

Download a copy of JetComp.exe:

Also have a look at the Microsoft KB article:

Then have a look at Tony Toews' Access Corruption FAQ at:

http://www.granite.ab.ca/access/corruptmdbs.htm

for some suggestions. Unfortunately, some corruption cannot be fixed - you
may need to create a new database, import what can be salvaged, and recreate
the rest.

Although it's a paid service, Peter Miller does an outstanding job of saving
corrupt databases. Try this URL:
