I had the same error after several attempts. It appears that this error occurs when the
database is too large for Access to process (hence the reason it occurs late in the game).
I found the error message to be obtuse and the process frustrating...

Subject: [CTPP] SF1 Access Shell Import Error
Hello Everybody,
I've been following the steps to import the SF1 data into the Access table shell.
Everything was working smoothly until I got to the 8th table to import, and then I got the
following message:
'Cannot open database " . It may not be a database that your application
recognizes, or the file may be corrupt.' (See screenshot below.)
I tried importing the next table, and got the same result. Has anyone run into this
problem? I'm at a loss because, as I said, everything was working fine previously. Any
help is much appreciated. Thanks!

p.s. I used a program called Greenshot to capture the above image. It's like a much
better "print screen". It's free and totally worth checking out:
