Hi Kevin,

I doubt very much that it will work, but you could try my
DBak utility to see if it can be made to extract some of
your data in a useable form.
http://www.telesiscomputing.com.au/dbk.htm

It does have some options to ignore some errors that has
proven useful in the past. eg. FB 0.9.4 is still in use
at one of my client sites and gets occassional blob errors,
and DBak can work past those - you lose the blob but get
the rest of the record.

But I dont think I have ever tried it on something as badly
damaged as your database sounds, but it could be worth a
try.
