[AccessD] corrupt database - backup rather out-dated.

Hi Bill:

Some wise person said always make your backups automatic because you wouldn't remember.

I am happy to say that I did separate the data tables the program. Much of
the advice given here is something that I already follow. However, it is
true that if I had made a backup just some hours before that I would be in
better shape than I am.

I guess this could have been a thread about how to prevent the downside of
this happening in the future. There are many such threads. However mainly
this was a thread about a corrupt database and whether it could be fixed.
Thanks all of those who offered help in this regard.
