Database FCB Error

A database on one of my servers went suspect and upon restarting the service vanished from the database list. When trying to reattach the database I receive the error

Error 5180: Could not open FCB for invalid file ID 119 in database 'mydb';

Is there a way to fix this in the MDF? Can I somehow tell the reattachment process to proceed with the problem so I can attempt a dbcc or at least recover the majority of the database.

Any help would be appreciated, Thanks.
 
HI There

It sounds as if one of your tables is corrupt. You may need to restore the database from a backup.

Hope This Helps
