Invalid Field Data Type (error 3259) by darkoo0o(op): 7:03pm On Dec 18, 2017
Here is my problem: Microsoft Access crashes frequently when I am opening mdb extension file. The 'Invalid field data type (Error 3259)' message pops up.
Can anyone explain whats happening and provide a solution?

It sounds like either the file has problems or your Access installation has.
Things to try (Keep backups of everything before you make any changes) :

Open the file on another machine.
Re-install Office or Access.
Compact & Repair the file.

If none of the above work then you can search the web for providers who can recover properly corrupted database.
More detailed information you can refer to this access database repair article: http://www.access.repair/
