Moderate: Requires basic macro, coding, and interoperability skills.

This article applies only to a Microsoft Access database (.mdb).

For a Microsoft Access 97 version of this article, see 277925.



SYMPTOMS
When you open a database, you receive the following error message:

Unexpected error 35012



CAUSE
One or more damaged (corrupted) objects exist in the Microsoft Access database. For example, one or more forms are damaged.



RESOLUTION
To resolve this error message, follow these steps:
 * 1) Create a new Microsoft Access database.
 * 2) On the File menu, point to Get External Data, and then click Import. Import all database objects (tables, queries, forms, reports, macros, and modules) into the new database.
 * 3) If you receive the &quot;Unexpected error 35012&quot; error message when you import a specific database object, repeat step 2, but exclude that object and restore the damaged object from a good backup.
