The data has been recovered and represents a lifetime of geneological research in England. Her program is almost all back together after much piecing and lots of gluing (ha, ha - I can laugh now, but it has been a night mare...). The remaining piece is the user menus as defined in sysmenu.dat and sysmenu.idx files. These files are corrupt and giving me lots of grief. Without them I will lose the user defined menus and functions she originally had. I am not sure that I can trash them and keep the database from coming apart... Can anyone help ???| Thanks, unislc!mrc@sun.com +=======================================================================+ Mike Cederholm dba. | (801)-254-7039 pineHOUSE Development | (801)-594-4460 @ Unisys,SLC 1246 Lampton Rd. | So.
