Could any of you who have a very large database, like over 100,000 records, tell me if check/repair works well for you. I've seen it (on a file of 169,000 records) finish in three minutes on one system, but on my system, and a number of others I've tried, it either fails with an error, or hangs for five to fifteen minutes on various steps along the way, often hanging right away in the middle of rebuilding indexes.
I have Windows 7 installed, and I've tried changing many settings and Services, and eliminating programs that might be interfering, but to no avail. Anyway, it hangs or fails the same way on many of the new computers at our local Family History Library. Any PC that has Windows XP will run Check/Repair without any problem, no matter how big the file is. I should say that I've not seen any such problem on smaller files ( I suppose under 10,000 records).. I have many small files which are the ones I usually work on, and have no difficulties with them. Any suggestions would be GREATLY appreciated. :-) Joseph Leavitt Legacy User Group guidelines: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Etiquette.asp Archived messages after Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Archived messages from old mail server - before Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Online technical support: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Help.asp Follow Legacy on Facebook (http://www.facebook.com/LegacyFamilyTree) and on our blog (http://news.LegacyFamilyTree.com).
