Data recovery can be iffy.

Not necessarily Charlotte. See other posts in the thread.

You're thinking of dBase.  Records weren't truly deleted there until you
packed the database.  In Access, gone is gone.

Hi Paul

Yes I ahve and I just get the 13. 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,

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 ?
