Dear P2p Community Forums,

I am using a A.mdb database. You know when connecting the databae Microsoft automatically create a .ldb file. Unfortunately my pc shutdown when connecting the database. As a resutl after restart the pc i couldn't open the A.mdb file. The message shown A.mdb database is corrupted. A.mdb database was password lock but after corrupted if i give the valid password the database not open and showing the password not valid. Now i couldn't open the database. Now it shown A.mdb file with A.ldb file. Please advise me if pc shutdown with the connected .mdb databae then why the database not recover after restart? Also i tried with the option Database Repair and Recovery.

Please advise me and thanks again for your kind co-operation.

Best Regards

I don't know if this will help, but I have experience similar problems in the past, which have been resolved by simply deleting the .ldb file. This will clear the lock on the mdb file and should allow you to get in and try and recover your data. Having had several cases where the database has been corrupted past my abilities to recover from, I now make a backup of the database either daily or whenever I make a major change - I always have to redo some work, but over all it makes recovery a lot simpler.

Good Luck,

Mike

As your A.mdb files exists in the same location but it is inaccessible, in this case you need to repair your access database, to repair your corrupted access data base you have to choose best Access Database Recovery Software

To repair your corrupted access database use Kernel Recovery for Access

I have visited many databas recovery websites and evaluated many database recovery software.
But my experience with Kernel Recovery for Access is almost excellent.

I used this tool when my sales.mdb or sales database got corrupted and showing error message like "The Microsoft Jet Database Engine cannot open the file". This tool helped me a lot to retrieve one of my important database.

BINGO!!! I get my database back without any problem...

The software is available for downloading its DEMO version which allows you to preview the recoverable contents of the corrupted database.

Really a great piece of software...........

thanks

Oh great, a sales pitch. Thanks recoveryguru, I really thought you were not a sales person for a minute there - NOT.

Anywho, deleting the ldb should allow you to reopen the file, as echovue says. If not, then you can try the local repair tools built in to Access.

Try repair and compacting the database first before you delete the ldb. but deleteing the ldb usually works to unlock your database.

For repairing corrupted .mdb files there is one more option Stellar Phoenix Access Recovery. This data recovery software does a complete scan of the corrupted access files. After that, access files are repaired and restored to a default location or to a user specified folder.
The demo version can be downloaded from: http://www.stellarinfo.com/access-recovery.htm
Demo version shows the preview of repaired database.

To repair a corrupt .mdb database of MS Access, one can try Compact and Repair feature of MS Access. It repairs corrupt database and makes it accessible for database users. Other than this one can also use import feature of MS Access that helps database users import their corrupt database to a new database file. If both these solutions fail to fix this corruption, then one must check some third-party access database repair or recovery software. I would like to suggest SysInfoTools MS Access Database Recovery software here to repair corrupt .mdb and .accdb files. One can check its free demo version before buying its full version. Download the software from this page: sysinfotools.
Hope this would be helpful.
