I have just received the following error message:

Microsoft access has detected that this database is in an inconsistent state, and will attempt to recover the database. During this process, a backup copy of the database will be made and all recovered objects will be placed in a new database. Access will then open the new database.
The names of the objects recovered will be logged in the "Recovery Errors" table.

when I click ok I the get:

The database 'C:\Documents\Users\bryanscott53\documents\test.mdb' can't be repaired or isn't a Microsoft Access database file.

Unfortunately the same for the back up copy too....

any suggestions on how to fix would be appreciated.

The Microsoft provided Detect and Repair tool can be accessed from different locations in MS Access XP, MS Access 2003, and MS Access 2007. In MS Access XP and MS Access 2003 the tool can be accessed by selecting Help > Detect and Repair option. While in MS Office 2007, you need to execute the following steps to access and use the tool:
1. Start MS Access 2007.
2. Click the MS Access button and click the PowerPoint options button.
3. Select the Resource Tab.
4. Click the Diagnose button.
After you have launched the tool using the MS Access application follow the onscreen instructions to use the tool.
5. In case nothing helps you apply https://www.repairtoolbox.com/accessrepair.html Access Repair Toolbox
