Hi Valter.

>I've been searching the threads and the file download area for information on how to detect and delete rows with corrupted data using low-level file i/o. Does anyone have information regarding such algorithms?

Rather than spending a lot of time working on this, I recommend purchasing one of the products available that'll do this for you -- it'll be cheaper to buy than to build, I guarantee it. FoxFix from XiTech is one choice and Recover from Abri is another.
