We are going to use DSO because we are now going to archive to a separate database. But if you want to just acrhive to the same db, as does the oob archive, just create a copy of the original form and use filters fired by escalations to move the data. This way you control which fields you want archived and you don't have to worry about the whole process being disabled because some mysterious field didn't get replicated on the archive form.

** Ron, Are you going with a third-party archiver or just building something in ARS? The only place Archiving is working for me is on the AR System Email Message archive I setup. Thanks, John J.

It means there is a field somewhere on your original form that is not on the archive form. Or the fields have the same id but are of a different type. One time I was able to resolve this by using ar utilities to create .csv files of all the fields on both forms, then comparing the two line by line till I found where they were out of sync. Sometimes the field you create on the orginal form does not copy to the archive because the 'Views' are out of sync. If you have a .def of the form before the change, you should import that. It would probably be the easiest solution. Or, try reversing the change you made. Either case, the out-of-box archiving sucks. That's why we are getting away from it.
