I would encourage you to use best practices. Applying to this situation that would include
1. frequent backups
2. An application split between front-end (FE) on each workstation, and back-end on a file server.
3. A way to quickly replace a corrupt FE on a user's computer.
If this is in place, the message does not cause heartburn, but rather a shrug and you apply step 3.

yes , i have all these in action and i have just replaced the FE on everyones computer
