Hello,

I am having problem with opening an Access database file. Below is the error I received when tried to open the database.

The Microsoft Jet database engine could not find the objects 'Databases'. Make sure the object exists and that you spell its name and the path name correctly.

Have anyone experienced this error before? I'm currently using MS Access 2000. Please advise. All feedbacks are appreciated.

Have you tried running the Compact and Repair from Tools -> Database Utilities on a copy of the database file?

John,
Thank you for your respond. I tried that but still getting the same error. Do you have any other ideas?
 
Hi there,

I ran into a similar problem when I took a copy of a database and burned it to CD. I then tried to load it on another computer that did not have the same network access and got the same message that you got.

Did you relocate the database to a new computer?
 
No, I didn't relocate the database. It was working early in the morning. The file probably got corrupt. I was not able to open it back up since.
