One thing you could try:
1. Backup all your database and table files (including CDX, FPT etc.)
2. Copy all the data from the suspect table to a temporary one in the same database: COPY TO
TempTable DATABASE
MyDatabase ALL WITH PRODUCTION
3. See if you can successfully modify the structure of TempTable. If you can:
- Check that TempTable seems to have all the data
- Make sure you have a good backup!
- ZAP your original table
- USE the original table, and APPEND FROM TempTable
- Test to see if the issue with the original table is fixed
- If so, remove the TempTable from your database
