database craches or gives "unrecognised

What might be the reason.

It might be one of many reasons, but the most common, in myu experience,
would be a dropped/broken network connection while some operation was in
progress, or a power outage, or a user who powered down their machine
instead of closing and shutting down gracefully. The best collection of
information and links on this subject that I know about is at MVP Tony
Toews' site, http://www.granite.ab.ca/accsmstr.htm.

See the Corruptions FAQ at my website for some things to try.
