Paul et al,

Thanks for the great suggestions.

Paul - I *did* update with the SR update patch when it came out, but
evidently it must not have taken.  Very odd.

In any case, I went and redownloaded it, installed the SR update, then tried
a rebuild several times on it.  Here is what occurred:

1.  I tried the rebuild several times, assigning 100MB of RAM of ER, then
200MB of RAM, then finally 500MB of RAM.  I only have 768 on the machine.  I
feel assigning 500MB of RAM of ER should be more than enough even for heavy
jobs like this rebuild.

2.  Each time I tried to do a Typical Rebuild, it went through the motions,
then at the end I got this message:

"Compacting failed.  The end of the file was reached.

-39

Try a complex rebuild?"

3.  Each time I further tried a complex rebuild and it went through the
motions, but at the very end it froze/locked up the program.  Just to be
sure it wasn't still doing something, I waited 15 minutes or so and then
finally tried to Force Quit ER.  I was unable to Force Quit ER so had to
reboot and let disk first aid run.

4.  After several tries of this and restarting, I went back in to see if for
some unknown reason this had fixed the database.  It had not.  When I run ER
in that identity and with that DB I still get a type 2 error and crash.

Anything else I should be trying?  Yes, I have tried a reinstall of ER from
the CD.
