Hi, can anyone help with the following problem? A month ago, I backed up a
_Data folder onto a CD. Now I have inadvertently removed some objects from
the current version of that database on my hard drive, so I thought that the
easiest way to recover them would simply be to retrieve them from the copy
on the CD. To my consternation (!), when I try to attach the _Data folder on
the CD, I get the following cryptic message
Error in cat(file=paste(dir,"__db3.1",sep="/")): couldn't open file
"D:\...\_Data/__db3.1" in cat
HELP!!
I notice that there's a forward slash after "_Data" in the error message -
could that be the problem??
Why on earth should I have problems accessing a database folder that worked
perfectly before I copied it on to the CD???
Copying the folder from the CD to my hard drive and trying to access it from
there also doesn't help ???????????
