Yvonne, It does seem as though you have a corrupt file, which would not really surprise me. Disks are not suitable for long-term storage, and I suspect that you have just found an example to prove the point.
I'm afraid I know nothing of the technology which may help recover the content - in fact I don't know if there is any - so, I regret that I am unable to help.

The former can be accessed using LTools if you do not have Access. Unless you are already familiar with the Legacy construction, it may not tell you much, other than whether it really is an Access file, and perhaps whether it is corrupt - which after all this time it may well be.
