I've already tried all of MS online suggestions including the new jetcomp.exe. Is there another way to recover a corrupt database?
 
Im not sure what &quot;all of MS online suggestions&quot; consist of...<br>

If you can open the database and have trouble with only one or more individual objects, you can create a new db and import all the objects that aren't corrupted. But as far as I'm aware, if you can't open the db, you generally can do nothing but look to your daily backup.
 
did you find a soluition?<br>

I can open the MDB but one of the tables seems to be corrupt: &quot;Invalid Field Data Type&quot;.<br>

Will Access allow you to export it to a new db, or make a copy of it? You may be able to narrow it down to the field(s) with incorrect data type, by making a copy and changing the field type.
