MS Access Database Behaving Abruptly

There are many situations where you might see your MS Access database behaving in an abnormal manner. Few of the unexpected behaviour situations could be missing of database table records, strange and repetitive error messages, inaccessible database components (forms, reports, etc), or slow execution of commands. Some common reasons behind abrupt behaviour of MS Access database could be application related issues, system problems, database corruption, and virus infection.


To bring the database back into normal state and access all the records, an easy way is to restore the database from an updated backup. But, if in case restoration of database fails and the database file remains in corrupted state, then the user needs to opt for a third-party Access database recovery application.

For detailed illustration of the above scenario, below are some database corruption error messages after which the database either stops working completely or behaves abruptly:

“Unexpected Error 35012”
“Visual Basic for Applications Project in This Database Is Corrupt”
“Unexpected data corruption failure”
Cause:
