Nothing can be worse than dealing with the corrupt MDB file. Corruption of MDB file means inaccessibility and loss of crucial data, forms, reports, procedures, triggers, views, etc. Therefore, taking preventive steps while working with MS Access is always suggested. For example, MDB file that contains text, forms, and reports all is more susceptible to damage than the MDB files having only text, forms, and reports. That is why it is always suggested to maintain different Access database files to store text, forms, and reports.

The second case where prevention can be a big relief is related to the database file shared over network. When MS Access database is being used in shared mode over network, then you must take care about following points:

The file shall be closed properly.

MS Access shall be closed in a proper manner after the use of file is finished.

Network connection shall not be lost while using the database.

There shall be no power sabotage i.e. the computer having database file shall not be closed abruptly.

Considering the above listed facts often keep MDB file miles away from damage making you happy all times. However, you follow the preventive steps listed above, nobody can predict about the corruption of Access database. The reason can be hardware failure, software failure, virus attack, or any other similar one.
