Office 2004 Database corrupt message

[John]

Hi I have office 2004 service pack 1, on OSX 10.3.6

Office keeps coming up with a message saying "Office database is
damaged" while working in Entourage, Excel, Word or Powerpoint.

Any ideas why this keeps happenning? What can I do to fix it?

I reformated my computer and reinstalled Office 2004.

Please help

Hi,

Hold down the "option" key when you start Entrouage. You should be prompted
with choices about rebuilding the database. Start with the least drastic
rebuild first.

Actually a Compact won't help here. Go straight to "Rebuild" option.
