[AccessD] Cannot compact and repair database

Problem solved!
Problem was found when copying tables to a new database. One of the
tables was corrupted. Restored table from a known good copy. Database
can now be compacted and repaired.

Try wrapping the paths in quotes. It might be getting hung up on the
space, so your command will look like:

"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\OFFICE11\MSACCESS.EXE" /decompile
"c:\files\dss\sacroc.mdb"
