Err..just done something REALLY silly!
Was wanting a printout of stock codes and product names only.
No probs, I thought, I'll just print it from the XL database.
After some jiggery pokery, I did it and obviously I was going to NOT save any changes I'd made..

BUT, it automatically did!
YIKES!
Now my catalogue won't open.
OK, I have the backup (recent, I backup each time I close) but I can't now launch my V6 to restore from a backup.

I can open the products databse in the backup (IYSWIM) through XL but I'm not sure how to merge one with the other.

With me?

What can I do to restore the backup?
Someone must know, I'm sure!
Thank god I did this before being open!! What a nonce!
Thanks for any help
Tracey (dimwit of the day!)

Have found a way round it!
Renames XL file in Site1 from ActinicCatalog to ActinicCatalog1 (just in case!) and renamed Backup to ActinicCatalog

Was a bit scared that it wouldn't work but it did!
now have backed up to create new backup!

Won't have created any lasting problems, will I?
Cheers,
Tracey (the relieved one!)
