Take a backup of the table first, before you start messing with it.
If they're fixed-length records, you should be able to recover most
of it. MySQL marks a record as deleted by changing the first byte
to 0. Just change it to something other than 0 for each record, and
then run isamchk on the table. I've never done it personally, but
it should work....
