My routine for a "flaky" mdb:
...backup
...save
...compile
...Access compact&repair
...decompile
...Jet Compact Utility
...and when all else fails, rather than the normal import to a new mdb, I 
try this first:
http://www.rogersaccesslibrary.com/Otherdownload.asp?SampleName='EATBloatV2.mdb'
...its worked wonders for me.
