    Recovering accidentally Deleted records from Access Database


    Accidentally deleted about 6,000 records, whilst transferring and reorganising database between machines.

    Believe that Access does not delete records, but marks them for deletion. Now need a simple piece of software that will recover the deleted records.

    Thanks very much

    Did you make a backup before you started the transfer? Or any other time?

    No. Method is to extract from the database weekly. 250,000 records have been extracted this way before this hiccup. Should have saved the records before deletion, but thought I had already done so, but the copy of the database only moved the Access Program bare bones leaving unbeknown the data behind. therefore when I found out that the transfer had not been effected, the data had been deleted.

Please reply to this thread with any new information or opinions.
