• Sorry - I probably asked my question in the wrong way.

    What I really wanted to know was whether you would proceed differently (i.e., more cautiously) knowing the corruption affected a system table as opposed to a user table. Or is a table is a table is a table?

    I wasn't really looking for a solution to my specific corruption problem. I've already written and tested a fix script (thanks to advice in your article and from Paul Randal's on SQLSkills.com).

    I do see now that a lot of people have posted specific issues in this forum, and I will be careful to avoid that!

    Thanks,

    Doug
