Access help Urgently!!!!!

[Shane]

Good day.

I really need some help! Someone here at our offices
deleted a Access database
file. I retrieved the file, but now it doesn't want to
open!!!!!!

It gives me the following error : Unrecognized database
format (.mdb)

Will someone please let me know what I need to do to make
this database to work as soon as possible!!!

Thank you

Shane

Shanne,
First off I want to let you know that I am not a Msvp but
I have run into a simular situation and the Microsoft Jet
Comp utility helped me out. Paste the link below to your
browser and you can read what it does. As I said it
worked for my Access 2k DB
