Try making a copy, that has worked for me sometimes. Do have any thoughts as to how it was damaged?

as far as i know, one of my co-workers was working on it and the computer crashed while it was open. So it must've become corrupt somewhere in that process. Is there any way that we can save our work?

I have heard of some little "fix-it" type progs. I'll look around and see what I can dig up.

Here is some things that I found as far as third party programs.

I can't think of anything else to try if you've already tried repairing the DB, copying the file or any of those ideas.

I'm sure there are other programs out there. You might try looking for an Access forum or a news group.

sorry I couldn't be any more help.
