Hello To check out an old hard disk, I connected it to my computer.
I found an old version of The Bat! in there and wondered what messages I might have in that old hard disk. So I opened that version of The Bat! thinking that it would show up the old messages. Wrong move! It only showed up the messages that are now what I have. That not being what I wanted to know, I closed the program. A warning message, which seemed to be like a slap on the hand, admonished me that I should *never* open the old program again. Ouch. OK. Point taken. But when I opened up the current version of the program, certain folders, including the one I had for OpenOffice, which had nearly 1,300 messages, were empty - not all folders, but about a third of all of them. No problem. I just restored the folders by using the Tools/Restore function using the autobackup file (which backup I had elected to do daily), and by opting for folder selection. Everything went well, all empty folders were restored - except for the OpenOffice folder. It said that there was an error reading the backup file. This is where I call upon the collective intelligence of the List: Is there a way of 're-indexing' that folder, i.e. making that part of the backup for the OpenOffice folder readable again? Waiting anxiously with fingers crossed - only of the left hand; the right is for manipulating the mouse :-0. -- Best regards, Chew Yoke Lim mailto:[email protected] ________________________________________________ Current version is 4.2.10.0 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
