But...when I try and make a copy of the Database file, I can't. I get error messages like "The Finder cannot complete the operation because some data in
'Database' could not be read or written. (Error code -36)."

If I try to create an Archive of the file, I get "An error occurred while
archiving a file".

Other files copy and archive without a problem. Except of course the file I want. I'm guessing this might be because Entourage was an open application when the disk damage has occurred, or the Entourage file just happens to be sitting on the part of the disk which is damaged (wild uneducated guesses on
my part).

Were you creating the archive in the Finder as a Zip file, or from within Entourage, ie, as part of an export process?
