Split database crash

E

Emma

Hi I have a database which I split it has crashed on one of my users. with
the following:

"The command line you used to start Microsoft Office Access contains an
option that Microsoft Office Access doesn't recognize. Exit and restart
Microsoft Access using valid command-line options."

Then it crashed again closing Access and gave the following:

"Microsoft Office Access can't find the database file Folder\Company.mdb"
"Make sure you entered the correct path and file name"

Finally it said:

"MS Office Access was unable to open the file "C:\HHC.mde". The file maynot
be an Access File, the path or filename specified may be incorrect, or the
file can not be openned exclusively. To repair the file manually, on the File
menu, point to Mnage database and then click Compact and Repair Database."

I have not compacted and repaired the database since the beginning should I
do that before my next installment of the front end?

First off it sounds simply like the link from Front End to Back End
isn't correct.

Hi,
As you are saying that you got the error "MS Office Access was unable to
open the file "C:\HHC.mde" then it means that your link between the front
end and backend is not correct. So please check the link.
If the link is correct and even though you got the same problem then it mean
that your .mdf file is corrupted and need to repair. During this case you
need a repair tool.
I hope there is a linking problem else I suggest you to use Stellar Phoenix
Access Recovery software to repair your mdf file.
