Database Damage

No matter how careful we are with our databases, stuff happens--the power might drop out, or the network might fail. For whatever reason, there are times when a damaged database is a distinct possibility. If you encounter a damaged Access database, choose Data/Database Utilities/Repair Database. When the dialog box opens, click on the errant file to select it, and then click on Repair. Access will let you know when it's finished.
