To diagnose the problem, we'll need a bit more information.
You imported data from Access into ebase, presumably using the ebase
import routine from the Admin tab. What did you do to test that it
worked? I presume you saw data in the ebase screens. Did you note
that the number of records was correct, that you could search for a
record you know was there, etc., ?
Next, what did you do today to open ebase. My guess is that you open
ebase using a shortcut, and it's still pointing to a test or
temporary set of ebase files, and that the file set with your data is
still lurking on the disk somewhere. Use the Windows Find utility to
search for ebase.103. If you have multiple copies, find the one with
your data and delete the rest. (Your backup should be on another hard
drive or a removable disk).
