3 About The database corruption is an occurrence of any type of error on the particular database. MS Access database is one of the important applications of Microsoft and is basically used to store data in.mdb and.accdb file format. However corruption can anytime happen and therefore it becomes necessary to prevent that corruption so that the data stored in it can be safe. Proactive approach should be to avoid corruption in first place. Here you will get to know about some preventive ways to protect your Access database.

4 1- Split your database If your database is accessed by more than one person then it will be better that split it into two pieces. First, a backend which stores the entire data in tables and second, the front end which consists of everything else like forms and reports. After that, name both the ends properly and always remember that your data is like gold.

5 2- Store temporary tables in a backend If your database populates, creates and after that removes the temporary tables then you should keep all those tables in separate backend database to avoid bloat. You should name the extra backend accordingly and this backend should be shared or local.

6 3- Don't use memo fields Try not to use memo fields when possible. Sometimes they cause corruption and it needs to be repaired but still some data gets lost from memo fields. So if you want memo fields then keep them in separate tables and don’t forget to create one to one relationship to parent table. If you want better then move the memo tables to separate backend database file and after that name the file accordingly to specify the purpose.

7 4- Create temporary tables to speed up queries When you run nested or complex queries then access may write temporary data which you never see. Generally such thing happens when query works in small amount of data performs slowly that puts stress on JET engine. But when access chokes in between the process then backend will get corrupt.

8 5- Don't put Mac and Windows users on the same network When users of both Windows and Mac share the same network then they can face the same issue and here separate network should be establish for database users. Generally Mac is noisier and it also generates wide amount of network traffic while moving large graphics. Therefore only use high quality network components.

9 6- Check the server's configuration The server configuration where you have stored the shared backend database may be sometimes the culprit. Therefore it becomes important to monitor and fix such type of error. However there are lots of possibilities from server parameters to malfunctioning disc controller to misconfigured RAID array.

10 7- Don't store picture files It is generally instructed not to store picture files in database. If you can then treat them in the same way as you have done with memo field. However access has no problem in attaching tables from several backend databases.

11 8- Be careful with WAN connections 8- Be careful with WAN connections If the WAN connection covers any type of connection from local system to a server through internet then it can cause a big trouble. In between reading the database can be slow but it can be acceptable. Although, the database can cause corruption and error prone while writing the database. But when any type of interruption happens while access times out or data transfer due to connection lost then the backend database gets corrupted.

12 9- Be careful with wireless networks (WiFi) If you are using Wi-Fi connection then its fine but always is careful because several users or neighborhood networks can really shut down the connection. At that time if you are writing then the database can get corrupt and this type of interference is not a big issue when users are reading from the database.

13 10- Troubleshoot network hardware When corruption happens after every time interval then it’s a problem of network hardware issue and you have to deal with. So try to narrow down the workstation and after that change the error prone station with another. If issue follows workstation then it can be easy to get rid of workstation as you know it’s the source.

14 Recommended Solution However after applying all the ways to prevent access database corruption, still if you face issue then you should fix the corruption problem with the help of powerful MS Access Repair Tool which completely repairs the access database corruption. This is one of the best repair tools which easily fix any type of corruption in Access database.
