Not Able To Import Data From A Database? It May Be Corrupt

MS Access is a Relational Database Management system (RDBMS) that integrates relational

MS Jet Database Engine with highly interactive Graphical User Interface (GUI) with robust development tools. It is packaged with MS Office Professional suite. So, you do not have to make a separate purchase for Access. Moreover, Access is significantly cheaper to implement and maintain than other RDBMSs. However, at times the Access database may get corrupt because of various reasons such as power outages, virus infections, human errors etc. In such cases, replace the corrupted database with updated backup. On the other hand, if the backup is not updated then you should use a third-party access database recovery tool to repair access file.

Consider a scenario wherein you want to import data from a table. You are not able to do so and an error message is displayed:

Operation failed - too many indexes - reduce the number and try again.

The error message signifies that the table from which you want to import data is corrupt and, thus, inaccessible.

Cause:

The root cause for this error message is that the index definitions of the table are corrupt. Access first imports the table definition and data, and then tries to apply the indexes. Since the index definitions are corrupt, the table cannot be imported. However, the data in the table is secure but inaccessible.

Resolution:

To resolve this issue, you should create a blank copy of the table. Remove all the indexes from the table and run an append query. Then, move the data from the corrupt table to the new table (in the same file). Now, recreate the indexes. Lastly, move the table to a new file. This should address the issue perfectly. However, if you are still not able to resolve the issue, you should use a third-party access recovery tool to repair access file. These tools do not require having sound technical knowledge for access file repair.
