Take data from a corrupted access database

A

Alessandra

Hi, I've an Access database that is protected by an account. The account administrator is allowed to do everything with this database
I've logged as administrator but when I try to open the database an error occurs (error 3033). The message error says something like this (I traslate the message from italian): "you haven't the required permission to use the database. To have the right permissions contact the system administrator or the database owner"
I've thought this database is corrupted, because I can work with other databases that have the same permissions, and I haven't change anything in my computer
The data stored in the database are very important, so I wonder if there is a way to take these data and put them in another database
Thank you for your help!!
Bye Alessandra

While in a new MDB you can try importing from the other MDB.

Does that file have different permissions than other files in that
same directory?

Well, I've tried to import data in another mdb database but the same error message is shown and I cannot import my data
All the files in the directory have the same permissions, and I can work with each of them but not with this database. This is the reason why I think it's corrupted
What can I do to save my data?

It may not be salvagable at all. If you can't Import, and if
JETCOMP.EXE (downloadable from http://support.microsoft.com) can't fix
it, you may want to consider sending it to Peter Miller at
http://www.pksolutions.com for his highly regarded database salvage
service.
