Don, congratulations on breaking new ground.  This is an error I've
never seen before.  Here's the textbook information on an error 154:

Error 154 Attempt to read block 0 as text.
The file DataPerfect is trying to read is corrupt or not a valid format.
Restore from backup. If there is no backup, try deleting the .IND file,
exporting all data, deleting panel files and .TXX file, importing data.

I think the issue is not the report.  Try exporting without using the
indexes
, deleting everything except the STR file and importing each
panel.

Good luck.

I am in an election cycle and was just modifying a report on a very large voter database and got kicked out with an error code 154. Re-entering the database doesn't work. Removing the index file and attempting to rebuild that doesn't work. Trying to export the .str file so I could delete the report I was working on doesn't work. Every attempt to use the database is stymied by this error code. Does anyone have any ideas on how I could recover this?
