MS Access Forum / Multiuser / Networking / November 2004Cannot pack and repair
I can't pack and repair my database. There are no logins to get onto our database so that is not the problem. I don't get any messages other than that an error has occured and access needs to close down. After closing, the database opens again and tries to compact again followed by another crash. Using Access 2002. Thanks in advance for any advice. Judy, Not guaranteed to work, but there's a good chance it might salvage your database, so you might want to give it a shot: make a new, blank .mdb and try to import in it all objects from the damaged one; if it works you'll have a new, clean copy of it. Good luck, Nikos > I can't pack and repair my database. There are no logins to get onto > our database so that is not the problem.

Using Access 2002. Sounds like corruption. For more information on corruption including possible causes, determining the offending PC, retrieving your data, links, official MS KB articles and a list of vendors who state they can fix corruption see the Microsoft Access Corruption FAQ at http://www.granite.ab.ca/access/corruptmdbs.htm Tony -- Tony Toews, Microsoft Access MVP Please respond only in the newsgroups so that others can read the entire thread of messages.
