That part, I can relate to, unfortunately. ( yeah, the data recovery guy without a backup. Go figure ) It's so easy to make a backup immediately before doing anything like that, I can't even begin to tell you how incompetent I felt at that moment, but it does happen even to the best of us. I got the data back ( I always get the data back ) but not without pain, embarrassment, wailing and gnashing of teeth, and two days which would have been better spent on other things. I've also learned that if there are other potential causes, such as what Fred suggested, look at the other potential causes before concluding the database is at fault. If I do conclude, not that the database is faulty, but that I can't find any other cause, then I call Paravel support. Usually, he says something like "Uh, you need to talk to Fred." When that happens, I shut up, sit down, and basically get out of the way. Usually, about 5 minutes later, it's fixed. Since we get the "potential release candidate" before you do, this is not a frequent, but also not an infrequent occurrence. -- Cowboy http://cowboy.cwf1.com The individual choice of garnishment of a burger can be an important point to the consumer in this day when individualism is an increasingly important thing to people. -- Donald N.
