Hi Jeff,

 This suggestion is completely devoid of logic, but do you think that
something like Cedarville Download could be used to extract the records
from the file? The standard UD utilities seem to have a problem...maybe
CD will work? Then, depending upon the file, create ELF records from the
downloaded data and import it into a **new** version of the old file?

For what its worth and good luck,
Rob

Subject: [U2] Unidata File Corruption

Unidat a 7.1.8 on Solaris 9.

I have a file that was mistakenly interrupted during a memresize.

Now I if I try LIST, SELECT or guide I get:

File size(16908288) is < minimum hash file size, blocksize(8192) * 
(modulo(5147) + 1).
TEMP is not a UniData data file
TM failed to open file 'TEMP'.

I assume at this point I'm SOL.  Anyone have other ideas?

I have backups and only appear to have 31 records added since the backup

was created, but any insight as to how I might recover data would be 
appreciated.
