Corrupt File as Cause of problem?

Hi,

I have a VB6 application using access as the backend. It works fine on 98
and ME.

I'm trying to convert to XP/2000, but having problems. I thought this was
due to some problem with XP when it was new, but now do not believe that is
the problem.

The database format is Access 97. When accessing a particular table from
certain forms, it works fine. The same table does not work from another
form with an error of no permissions etc.. Same access method -
DB.openrecordset(etc.) When I convert to access 2000 format, I get the same
problem, but a 3014 disk or network error message. Then, compact also hangs
when programmatically called (with DBVersion40 parameter) - but compact
works in access 2000.

In access 2002 itself, everything appears to work fine.

I am begininng to think the database may be corrupt. Any ideas? Anyone
know of code to import all structure etc. into a new file?
