Your not interpreting that quite right. All he is saying is that through he DBMS, you cannot go in and un-delete a record like you can with dBase. Records are still on the pages until the page is re-written. Of course you'd get a lot of other junk as well because if you read the page to recover it, you're going to get everything deleted prior to this as well. A recovery service is worth a shot...

I don't think there's any mystery. I think the records have been cleanly deleted somehow. But as the MDB's not been compacted they're in there and I wondered if they could be undeleted. Or am I slipping into old dBase/Clipper speak? -- Andy Lacey http://www.minstersystems.co.uk --------- Original Message -------- From: "Access Developers discussion and problem solving" <accessd at databaseadvisors.com> To: "Access Developers discussion and problem solving" <accessd at databaseadvisors.com> Subject: Re: [AccessD] Recover deleted records Date: 20/08/09 10:33 Andy, I'm in the uk but not seen this before, apart from when a filter was applied to the table then saved. I assume you have tried creating a new MDB and importing the table into that to see what you get ?
