Inconsistent State

Hopefully someone can shed some light on this problem...

I have a Access 2007 db that I developed and have been using for a couple of
years now. Just recently it has crashed twice and when it crashes, the FE
will not link to the BE. If I try to open the BE it says database is in an
inconsistent state... what exactly does this mean? The db is being used in a
server environment with approx. 10 users, what would be some of the possible
situations that might cause this problem?

Kevin,

Sounds like beginning of corruption, have a look at...
