We do. There was a time when it seemed that people like Paul Carnine knew a lot more about the details of the data file and structure than 4D did. DataCheck was definitely superior to the 4D Tools of the time. Remember also that back then, if you had to run Recover by Tags, you knew you were going to lose a significant portion of your data. The tags just weren’t reliable. Now, touching the same piece of wood, the MSC is very good at diagnosing and fixing problems. > I have not (touching a very big piece of wood) had a Datacheck moment for a > long time, although cheap storage makes very regular backups much easier. Agreed. Also, having the journals makes recovering from data problems much easier. > Sorry to hijack your post! No problem.
