@qwerty - this is what i got when i tried opening with Notepad++

"NUL SOH NUL NULStandard Jet DBNUL..."
Well, then it really looks like being the right file. But even worse, some internal structures are clobbered. If you can't get it opened via MS Access (you need to try different versions) your only hope is the backup.

@Simon -  ok...what subject line should i write in the email so that its easily understood by you or Aaron to take it from there.
Send to [email protected] with a subject line something like "damaged EAP file recovery (attn: Aaron B)".  I will see it.

Thanks everyone for your suggestions....

I was saved from rework by my colleague....he had the file from few days back and i could recover from the problem.

Thanks once again
