    Question Error in MS Access database


    Whenever I opening my access database it throws an error message and ask me to close the application. Due to this I ain't able to update my access database. Some are saying it corruption, is it? Please help me. I have no better idea here except the importing option. But before that I wanna know this: is this really corruption?

    Here is this what I am getting: "MS Access has encountered a problem and needs to close."
    And yes, I have tried to open it on my friends MS Access. The result was same, couldn't open it. Anything you know here?

    But I'm using MS Access 2007 and the solution written on that page is for MS Access 2010. Does it also work with MS Access 2007?

    No luck. The result is still same: a corrupt file. Something more you can do here?

    This I have already done. In fact this is the first thing what I tried when I came to know about corruption. Anyway thanks.
