Hi, I have a corrupt database, and I'm trying to salvage my data. Any ideas? I have tried exporting the data to another database. I have also tried using JetComp as another way to compact/repair the database. Here is the error message I keep getting - even after attempting to compact and repair:

"Microsoft Office Access has detected corruption in this file. To try to repair the corruption, first make a backup copy of the file. Then on the tools menu, point to Database Utilities and Compact and Repair the Database. If you are currently trying to repair this corruption, then you will need to recreate this file or restore it from a previous Backup."

Recovery Toolbox for Access can extract the following data from damaged files:
•the original structure of the previously used tables (indexes and fields)
•table data inside databases
•any queries except the ones used in reports and forms
•any correct relations except the ones used for displaying data (relations between columns of the same table)

If this way didn't work, try to find the answer here: https://groups.google.com/forum/?hl=en#!topic/recovery-access2/2FNDbdO4lRU
