You know, as far as problems go, this one was rather exciting for me. =) There are lots of things one can do to mess up the database, but this was the first time I've ever CORRUPTED the data from a simple query (that still seems absolutely correct, but I'm testing on my development machine where it's safe to crash the database!). Queries break, they might run out of control and try to return too much information, but to actually corrupt a table? In the three years I've been working on Atlas Quest, I've NEVER managed to corrupt a table before. NEVER! =)

I knew about the "repair" command, but it's always been one of those things like presidents peeing. You know they do it, but you never really expect to see it yourself! It was the first time I had to repair the database! =)

Well, I am sure I speak for the general population when I say "thank you for doing so!!!"
Where would we be without AQ??! (Oh yeah ... letteboxing! har har!!)

Seriously, thank you!
