I just upgraded to v1.7. As I was starting up for the first time, a message came on about a new database format and would I like to transfer my old data into it. I said yes, but received a message that I had errors in my database and couldn’t transfer until I had verified and repaired my current database. So I did. Except there is still one evidently irreparable error.
So my first question is: Is it possible to find and eliminate this one error, or any other error, for that matter?
My second question is: Will I be allowed to update with an error in the database?
And my third question is: How do I now update the format? The initial message said it was possible any time and listed a process, but I didn’t write down how to do it. I expected I would be given another opportunity at the next startup, but nothing.
Try “Backup & Compress” (this will update the format too) and “Verify & Repair” afterwards. If the error will be still there, send us the database (using our FTP server <ftp://ftp.devon-technologies.com/incoming>) and we’ll have a look at it.
