Problems with Corrupt DB

I am having problems with corruption in an Access 97 DB. The DB is being used as a back-end on a reporting intranet site. The error message says that the file is corrupt or isn't a database file. For the last week I have been replacing the file with a backup copy that opens fine - it will run like that for the rest of the day, but the next morning when I come back in the file is corrupt again. I have tried to repair the file and it says it is unrepairable. Today I tried to run the repair on a working backup copy before moving it over to the live site and it immediately became corrupt - and it opened fine just seconds before. I have tried creating a new DB and importing the objects from the corrupt one and it fails also. I am at my wits end and don't know what else to do, can anyone assist with this problem?
