It may not work considering decompile did not, but I have had some luck opening a blank database and importing all of the objects. After that your best bet may be to purchase software or send it to a service which rescues corrupt databases. I have needed this once and used a service that I would need to look up the name of. For less than $25 they did a fine job of rescuing a chunk of corrupt data.
