Thanks, Albert. I always exit before copying the files (which I assume auto disconnects the database). But I did try connecting, make a couple changes, then specifically disconnecting before exiting. Still no change. I hope that’s what you meant.

My test: 1. Updated myself in table Contact to be “Not specified”. This creates a record in ContactHistory with the “before” data using a trigger. File sizes and dates were unchanged 2. Updated myself back to “Married”. File sizes unchanged. 3. Disconnected. File sizes were updated. My conclusion: The files are cached until the database is disconnected.

I was so happy to have my only other main R:Base problem fixed by Razzak so quickly and easily. When I last upgraded to R:Base Extreme 9.5(32), the file Attributes suddenly stopped changing, i.e., the date modified never changes, and RB1 through RB4 never changes size (no matter how many rows I add or changes I make). Because I have auto back-up drive that backs up changes only, it will not back-up my R:Base data files unless I do it manually. I found a program that will automatically update the date changes to current (if I mark and select those each time), but it does NOT change the size of any of the RB1 through RB4 files. My data always seems to be there, but I’m worried that the file sizes are static. Thank you.
