Database Corrupted

this message appears when trying to open the database

and how to fix it and please attach the tools if available.

Microsoft Dynamics NAV

There is a corrupted area in the database. This type of error occurs if the database file is changed by another program or if the device driver does not function correctly. Warning! This error MUST be corrected before you can continue. Do not use any type of disk utilities on the database. First check the database by clicking File, Database, Test and then click Maximum. If you still get the same error, you should: 1) Make a backup of the database by copying the database file(s). 2) Use the built-in function to make a backup. 3) If this works, create a new database WITHOUT deleting the database that contains the error(s). Restore the backup (made with the built-in backup function) into the new database, and test it by clicking File, Database, Test and then clicking Maximum. If this procedure does not work, any changes to the database after the most recent backup will be lost. Restore the most recent backup (made with the built-in backup function) and test it. For security reasons, you should save the old database until you have used the new one for a period of time. Contact your system manager if you need assistance.
