Yes, I have followed all those steps. The only difference it makes is that 
initially the records processed counter gets a little bit further (ie another 
5-10,000 records) before the overflow occurs.

 

It’s no big deal since I can create my own MSAccess query whenever I need to 
generate the media records information I need. For the present, I’d rather 
Legacy’s programmer resources were allocated and dedicated to getting the big 
ticket items resolved, eg Mapping or (in the case of my submitted problem) 
Merging using Drag and Drop. But I’ll happily submit a problem report if 
someone can guarantee that this problem will be given the very lowest priority 

 

Cheers

Alan,

Have you done the things in the Support article for Error 6?


They might help.

Also note that Support doesn't control the order of the fixing of bugs and 
don't do the programming required. So to not contact support about an issue 
until other things are fixed makes no sense.

If you want a list of everything you've scanned, then you need a 
program/utility that will print a directory. It's awhile since I've used one. 
In Windows 10 I find I can copy a list from File Explorer and paste it into 
something after I've copied something else from my clipboard extender program. 
I use Spartan from http://m8software.com/ but I'm sure the free version would 
work as well.
