Downloads > Clone Database

This utility was developed to resolve a problem we were having with a large Access database. One of the indexes had become corrupted and was misreporting the number of records in the table. This was resulting in an unexpected "no current record" error in VB because the end of the table was reached even though the index indicated that there were more records.

Clone Database examines the source database and creates a new database with the same structure. It then copies across the data from the old database to the new one. In our case this resolved our problem because a completely new index was created to which the records being copied were then added.

This freeware version of Clone Database allows you to choose any combination of tables and queries to clone. It does not clone any other objects in the database, it does not work with password protected databases and the cloned database is created in Access 2000 format.

If you already have the VB runtime files (including data access objects 3.6) you can simply download clonedb.exe
