They pulled a backup from the network and Access won't even recognize it. Now they told me yesterday they have installed something that should fix this problem on a go forward basis - a day late and a few dollars short. So as of yesterday, the dbs they pulled off were fine - go figure. This is a relatively small db and only holds data temporarily - it pulls data from another database and sets it up to be pulled into an Excel spreadsheet - only use it quarterly. Guess that's why I forgot to save my own backup. The department that uses it hired someone new who called me to say it wasn't working correctly. When I opened it, it was an exact copy of the database that it pulls data from - I think the new guy overwrote it by accident. Anyway, I'm having difficulty remembering what it did. Luckily, I had typed up instructions for the users - what buttons to click, etc. So I have that to go by. At this point, only option seems to be to start over - at least we have all the data so that's no problem. >>> gustav at cactus.dk 06/05/03 07:27AM >>> Hi Terri > .. Our network people say that databases don't restore correctly > from their backup - my bad! There must me more to this statement. Restoring a database file should not be a problem. /gustav _______________________________________________ AccessD mailing list AccessD at databaseadvisors.com http://databaseadvisors.com/mailman/listinfo/accessd Website: http://www.databaseadvisors.com --------------------------------------------------------------------------- This email and any files transmitted with it are confidential and intended solely for the use of the individuals or entities to whom they are addressed.
