I don't know of any way out if the recover process fails. If it does work, you still want to get the data into a new set of files from a new download. Are you able to determine which files are damaged? If it is not one of the primary files (names, payments) you might be able to replace those files with empty new files and recover data from the main files. -- -- Dave Shaw H4 Consulting tel: 206-954-7526 fax: 206-625-1338 ------------------ Reminder to each recipient: To change your list account preferences, go to http://email.sparklist.com/scripts/lyris.pl?enter=support and enter the email address you used to subscribe to the ebase support list:: [email protected] To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- ebase - Relationship Management for Nonprofits, http://www.ebase.org ---------------------------------------------------------------------
