|
When I start up Happy Collection on my Windows 7 PC, I get the message "BLOB has been modified". I click OK and the program starts up as usual. When I attempt to add a new record using the Creation/Duplicate option, I enter details and when i click Validate Creation, I get the message "Post error while insert reference". I click OK and Cancel Creation to return to the main screen.
Despite the error message, the new record has been created correctly.
Qu'est-ce qui ce passe? |

The problem briefly disappeared, then started up again, making the database unusable. I restored the COLLECT1 files from backup, and all appears to be well (for now at least). I would still like to know what the problem was and what steps, if any, I can take to avoid it in future. |

"Blob" is in fact the memo part of your database, which is stored in the Collect1.mb file.
It seems that you have had corrupted indexes, which can happen for instance when you get a powerfailure or computer hang while writing in the file.
The right way to get rid of that is what you did : Use the backup copy.
In the future, i will provide a small utility that can regenerate indexes if they have been corrupted. |
