It is a custom database created by my app. My app is customly written to collect certain type of data.
Can you be specific on what kind of dm functions that could accidentally make the database invalid? I create the database using DmCreateDatabase(1, "databasename",0,0,0); Could it be that my database doesn't have a creater type etc... ? Other than that, I only do these operations to the database.. DmDatabaseSize DmFindDatabase DmNewRecord DmWrite DmSetDatabaseInfo Is there something particular you are referrring to that will invalidate my database? Does anyone have similar experience that they could share with me? Any input will greatly appreciated!!
