Tristan, Your best bet would be to see if your DBA can rollback your test environment to before you did the import. Once they do that, do an export of ALL data that sits on any form that you are going to import. The DBA can also do a snapshot of the app from their end, but depending on what type of changes you made on the form(s), that can be sticky. Once you've exported all of the data (do a .csv or .arx report with all fields, including flds you can't see), then import the new form. It will drop all data. But you use ARImport to map all of the fields in your report to all of the existing fields on the new form. Just do a map all and make a note of anything left over so you can figure out if you need the data to those fields later. Then let the Import rip! Hope that helps. KP
