>I have a table that when packing, I receive the error "invalid or missing memo file" I beleive the error number is 41. If I go into the table that is reporting this error, the Memo's seem to all be there (although I haven't checked every record). The table is part of a in a DBC and I can successfully reindex, I just can't pack without getting this error. Is there a way that anyone knows to recover this file? This is an extremely important table, and the beads of sweat fall on my keyboard at the thought of losing the memo file? Thanks for any help!!

John,

A simple way that may "fix" a packing problem is to copy the table to another
temporary table and then use the temporary table instead. You might
have to reindex and re-attach the new table to the DBC.

While this may remove the packing problem, it will not tell you which
memos had problems and you will have wrong memo data not knowing which it is.

Our 'Recover' utility does an excellent job of error detection and
repair - and will in this case list the offending records/memos so
you can take corrective steps.

A single user license of Recover is only $70.
