It sounds a bit as if you copied by mistake the OLD database and replaced the NEW database with the old one. Could that be?
To find all databases and find out which is the latest one on your drives, do a search (via sherlock on the drive or command-F or whatever the command is under OS 9 to find a file) and do a search for "Message Database" and then look on the MODIFICATION date of the files and you might find the "lost one" and discover you just opened by mistake an older database instead of pointing PM to open the latest version of your database. Good luck and I hope it's the second thing that happened and not the first. ---marlyse ------------ former message(s) quotes: ------------- >I have just lost my database again!
