I had an Access 2000 database that I believe was corrupt at one point. However, I haven't had any problems lately and think that it's not corrupt anymore (repair/compact probably fixed it). My question is: is there a way to double-check that the database is not corrupt? Even though I have not been having any recent problems, I need to be absolutely positive that the database has 100% integrity, as it is a very expensive database we plan to release. For example, if the database were corrupt, would I receive error messages if I tried to export/import into a new blank database? Thanks.

Excellent question. I have no idea what the answer is. But if you post this question to Comp.databases.ms-access you will likely get answers from people who know issues of corruption quite thoroughly.
