The problem here was my own... When originally created the database the
first panel I created did not fulfill what I wanted to do, but I never
got around to deleting it (or the data within it). The data contained
some corrupt characters. Once the panel and data were removed, The Big
Clean worked as described.
Sorry to have troubled you and others about this...

Did you see that all the corruption was gone after doing the Big
Clean? To see that, simply do an export of all data to log and view
the log.

I wanted to do a big clean on a database. Following Ralph's method I
copied all the data in one single Transaction Log. I looked at the
log and I noticed at the beginning of the log file some serious
corruption.
I then created a transaction log for each panel (14 of them) and then
used the report function to print to wpd files all of the panels
individually. Looking through them, there appeared to be no corruption.
I then proceeded to the big clean importing the 14 log files 1 at a
time. This all worked without any problems.
Also I tried "Cleaning the .STR Without Re-indexing" method in
Ralph's book and in addition ran dpdiag which reported not warnings.
The database runs fine and there appears to be no problem in
running/using the data.
Is there any way I can track down/deal with the problem is?
Running the latest version of DP (2.6X).
