I need to access the database

hello guys please what i need to do to access the database.

 

  • Reboot the machine. File > Account to make sure Access is at the latest version.
    On a copy of the file, run File > Infor > Compact and Repair
    If it still fails, try it on another computer.
    If it still fails, go back to a backup. You may have some corruption.

        Create a new database.
        Use the Import feature to import tables from the other database. That should give you at least the data, but not a working application.
