Reading corrupted ISAM table files

Hi all

One of MySQL servers went down the hard way after a power failure. The
server was running MySQL 3.23.* and after bringing it back up I
realised that one of the tables was corrupted. I tried to run "repair
table" on it, but since it was an ISAM table it didn't work.
After trying some other things I decided to recover the database from a
backup, but I lost 5 records.
I have the old database (the one that crashed) on the side and I need
to recover those 5 records from it. Are there any applications to do
that? Read the .ISD files and recover the content?

Any help would be most welcome.

Best regards,
Rui

Hello one and all. I have a stored table in my database and the form I'm using is based on a query that draws data from my stored table and a linked table. The linked table is a *.txt file.

Hello all, This is going to be a rather lengthy "question". I have an Access 2k database, separated front end/back end. Front end copies are on about 30 workstations and used frequently during the work day. The backend has a table called CLIENTS with approximately 6000 client records. Changes to data in the table are made via a frontend db Form which has CLIENTS as its record source.

Dear NG, This fall I may try to convert an old MRP-II system from COBOL to C#. I have been using Microsoft SQL Server while I have been learning C# to hold the data. This is fine, but if I sell my product I will be forcing my customers to buy SQL Server. In addition, the original COBOL uses ISAM for all of its files. It would be cheaper for the end user and easier for my conversion to use a C# callable ISAM facility. Does anyone...
