Major fiasco on my hands here. I was in the middle of updating a record
when the system halted, and the Access DB became non responsive. Eventually
I had to CTRL-ALT-DEL to close the application. When I tried to open the DB
again, the file has become corrupt and I get the error message "The
Microsoft Jet database engine cannot find the object "Databases" . I
understand a database can become corrupt during an interrupted write to a
table but is there any way I can get this database open again? I have tried
the following.
- Tried to compact and repair. Failed. Same error message appears.
- Tried importing objects into a blank DB. Failed. Same error message.
- Tried using jetcomp utility. Failed. Error message.
Access is in Access 2002 format and I was using Access 2003 for processing.
Anyone know what I can do to recover this db? I have a backup from two days
ago however I do not want to lose two days of work.
Thanks.

You've done the basics but there are a few more things you can try at the Corruptions
FAQ. http://www.granite.ab.ca/access/corruptmdbs.htm

You might want to try Digital DBA
( http://www.kzsoftware.com/products/digitaldba), which monitors your
database for corruption and automatically repairs it. It can also do
other database administration tasks like nightly backup, compact, and
repair.

Error msg =
The expression On Open you entered as the event property settings produced

Hi,
I use a delegate to call a method from my main GUI thread. This delegate
takes one of my business objects as a parameter. When I do a synchronous

and I debug into the called method, I find that myBusinessObject is
partially corrupt. All basic type members, like strings etc. are fine, but

One of my users had a corrupt front end that wouldn't open.
My app is launched using a launching application (logon app). The logon app
has a button for downloading a "fresh" copy of the front end from the server
to the user's PC. I thought that this was a good idea since Access seems
susceptible to corruption.
I told the user to open the logon form and click the "Download" button, which

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
