I created a Temp folder; and follow the instructions above.  When I
re-open TB, the Temp folder shows 0 messages.  Then I check the
integrity of the Temp folder.  The result is Messages Recovered:0,
Damaged Parts (part0001.bin), Saved:1.

However, the Temp folder still shows 0 messages.  When I look in my hard
drive, the new part001.bin is smaller than the previous part001.bin; and
the messages.tbb and *.tbi in Temp folder indicate an empty folder.

Does this mean that the old part001.bin is useless, and messages can not
be recovered?

This doesn't work.

This works in that the Integrity check shows the smaller message
numbers.

Separately, after I ran the Integrity check today, some row labels are
missing on the Results section on the bottom.

On the bottom Left                           On the bottom Right
   Duplicate found: 0                                     172
   Messages purged: 0                                       3
   Disk space saved                                      8447

When I ran the Integrity check the day before, I remembered that there
were row labels for the numbers on the bottom Right. Why am I missing
those row labels? And how can I get them back on the Results page again?
