Hi, Chuck

Sounds like your original .cdb file is corrupted, so simply moving it to a
different source won't fix the problem.  If you've made a recent backup of
the list, you could try restoring that. However, if you haven't backed up
your list in a while, then I'm afraid you're in trouble. I, too, learned the
hard way that at least backing up my important files such as address details
is a good idea.  I know of no way to repair corrupted files, I'm afraid.

Sorry

Kylee

any e-mail with a message saying undeliverable, etc. Anyway, Please read on
and if anyone can help with this problem I'd appreciate hearing from you
either on the list or privately.

Subject: BrailleNote address list problem


Hello,

I have a BrailleNote QT running KeySoft 6.11. I am having a problem when
trying to copy addresses in to the default "Address List" from another file.
I have taken the following actions when I receive the error:

  1.. from the main menu I select "A" for Address List.
  2.. Upon entering the Address List menu I choose "S" for "Setup Options";
then "Select KeyList File" and type in the name of the other address list
that I want to copy entries from.
  3.. I then press enter and am returned to the Setup Options Menu. I press
escape and am returned to the KeyList Menu.
  4.. I then choose "C" for Copy Addresses and am prompted to choose whether
I will be copying addresses to a document or an address list. I choose "A"
for address list.
  5.. I am then prompted for the destination file name. I choose "Address
List" from the list of files and receive the following error message:
"Exception: command: 398 at 1843. access violation reading 8519152."

I have spoken with Technical support in California and was told that
possibly my address list.cdb file may be corrupted. In light of that I tried
the following:

  1.. I moved the address list .cdb file onto a compact flash card thus
removing it from the keylist directory on the flash disk. Prior to this I
had exported the data from the address list file by using the export
database to CSV option of the "Database Conversion" option in the
"Utilities" menu.
  2.. I then went back in to the KeyList menu and accessed the address list.
I was prompted to create a new address list database and responded in the
affirmative.
  3.. Once the empty address list file had been created I again used the
database conversion option and chose import database from CSV.
  4.. Once the address list was again filled I attempted to copy addresses
to it again as stated above and received the same error.

I would appreciate any assistance you can give me on resolving this issue as
I need to move all the entries in my other file to the default "address
list" file.
