Hello TBUDLers, After losing half my msg base and my address book (Friday 13th? - no, not really, it happened yesterday) I followed Roelof's advice on creating fictitious accounts. I thought I was out of the woods, until I discovered that nothing that I could do, would bring back my address book. I opened the address book and tried
>File, Import From, and even >File, Open Address Book as well as the various permutations therein. No luck I have now spent several hours trying to recover my address book, which has somehow got badly corrupted. At one point, there was a huge list of cabalistic signs or gibberish. I've got Intermediate and Trusted Root CA, but none of my own addresses. What annoys me most, is that I have been backing up religiously (at least once a week), using the internal function (Tools, Backup). Now that I need to reinstall with Tools, Restore - and irrespective of the date of the back up - the Restore refuses to perform, apart from doubling up the number of messages in the msg base. I used tbkdigger to explore TB's internal backups. It was interesting to see the names of the files and attachments in each account, but even with Tbkdigger I could not see my address book. Surely it is backed up along with the msg base? If so, where is it? And why doesn't Restore do what it is supposed to do and roll everything back to where it was last week/last month ? -- Regards, Maurice -------------------------------------------- Using The Bat! 2.04.7 under Windows XP Pro.1 with 256MB ________________________________________________ Current version is 2.12.00 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
