We Lost it ALL!

Good points. It sounds like the temp file got corrupted. So, what needs to be done is maybe the temp file has some kind of marker in it that tells it that is complete or not - like the last thing written to the file. (Once I lost a Word file for a similar reason so Lectora is not totally alone here.)I still think you are at risk waiting to the end of the day to backup. Buy WinZip and set up a job to zip all the *.awt files at least once an hour. You could have paid for 10 WinZip licenses with the time you lost. And it sounds like it could happen again. Put those backups in a folder and clean it out once day. You can also set it up so that it puts them in one for the current day of the week. I keep 7 days around just to be sure. I have gone back several times to recover stuff -- in my case mostly data lost due to operator error ;-)Edited By: bpitman on 2006-11-29 10:11:51
