[AccessD] VBA project corruption

Andy,
I did try decompiling, using this syntax from a RUN window:
[path and file for MSAssess.exe] /decompile [path and file for my mdb].

Not sure if I constructed that correctly.  But it appeared to chug along
and do something, but then ended up with the same VBA Corrupt message.

A nice, long productive holiday weekend working on my Access 2000 mdb...
Then yesterday I open the file and get "The Visual Basic for
Applications in this project is corrupt." Sigh.

I can shift bypass in to see objects. But completely unable to run
anything with code, nor can I even view code. Ran Repair and Compact to
no avail.

Normally in these situations, I start a new MDB, then import all objects
from the corrupt DB. But here, even the import function fails (same
error message) when I point it to the corrupt db.

I have heard of (but never used) third party utilities that work some
magic. Any advice? I'd love not to have lost many hours of work.

Thank you.
