Re: Restoring ONE table from a backup?

The problem with Version 5 is that when you perform an archive, you *must* archive the entire OnLine system --- that includes all databases and tables. In addition, if you want to restore, you *must* restore the entire OnLine system. Unless you've got the raw data archived in some other format --- you don't have many options other than the one suggested by Informix. Archives and restores in version 5 have never been the products strongest feature. Version 7 allows you to archive at the dbspace level, so in affect you can place specific tables within specific dbspaces and archive/restore as needed. Are there any other ways of recovering the table (using tbcheck utility) to repair the corruption? J. Dority
