Restore from your last good backup.
Oh wait, another person without backups. Why?

SQL 2000, going to be very hard to get this fixed, and the chances of getting it back are not great.

First step, set it to emergency mode:
EXEC sp_configure 'allow updates', 1
RECONFIGURE
GO

Step 2, set the DB to emergency mode
UPDATE sysdatabases set status = 32768 WHERE name = <database with the problem>

Step 3, connect to that database and run CheckDB.
DBCC CheckDB (<database with the problem>) NO_INFOMSGS, ALL_ERRORMSGS

Run just that and NOTHING else and post any errors that you get.

DO NOT detach the DB. DO NOT restart SQL.

p.s. If you need urgent help and are not willing to wait, pay someone for that support. We're all volunteers here, we post in our spare time.
