"Repair tables" can only work with what it can find, it's not magic. Your last backup is your best friend. For the future, do this: Change operating systems to something more rugged, Windows 2000 or XP if you want to stay in the Windows world, Linux or BSD if you want to switch to the *nix world. These will allow you to issue mysqldump on a timed basis so that data is regularly backed up. They are also secure, W98 isn't. They are also more likely to stay up and not crash. Depending on your level of comfort, I'd really recommend Linux because of the incredible depth of support. If you are running Windows98 as web server you effectively have nothing in the way of security or protection, and by extension any other networked computer attached is vulnerable. Make daily backups of your database. If you want to use MySQL, don't run a beta, run a stable version. Change to PostgreSQL if you want a more robust database. A bit slower than MySQL, but much more rugged. The latest version does away with all of the traditional complaints associated with PGSQL. Probably not what you wanted to hear, but good luck.
