Re: Corrupted DBP File

Bill and Gil,

Thanks for the suggestions. I'm going to try to work around the data and
rebuild the file from other data. Fortunately its header information for
medical bills and the detail information is fine. I think I can back link to
all the data. I'll be speaking with the customer tomarrow to find out how
badly, $$$$, they want this data back.

Yet another story of the importance of good backups.
