Hi paul,
How to convert database type form Ver 7.0 to Ver 6.x?
I converted a BS 6.5 database when I experienced the evaluation edition BS 7.04, then I can't open the database normaly with BS 6.5. The error information was:[Table_folder: field 'exclusive' not found.]
I need to work database based on BS 6.0 since BS 6.0 is a registered edition.
How to restore the database?
Thanks!
As indicated before the
As indicated before the upgrade, you should always work on a backup copy of your old database when doing upgrade. There is no routine to convert the database back. If you have to work with version 6, you can export references folder by folder and import them back to version 6 database.
Thanks for your reply. I
Thanks for your reply. I find fortunately a late copy of BS 6.0 database, and the change is little, so I work on BS6 again. then I decide to backup the database carefully, some problems happen.
firstly I selected menu, "updata lookup index", it worked fine.
Secondly, selected "updata search index", when processed to 20% writing, a error information was given: "Field 'rbword' must have a value"
Then, I selected "Rebuild Database", second error: "DBISAM Engine Error # 11013 Access denied to table 'note'". the Folder and Reference module became blank. I pressed "Shift+Ctrl+F", want go to Folder module, another error: "Table_folder: Field 'Folder_ID' not found"
What's the meaning of these errors? What's the reason that cause these errors? What should I do to fix these errors?
Thanks!
The Update Search Index
The Update Search Index command is for rebuild index for the old full text search. It does not work reliably. We just include this for users of older version who still want to use this feature. The later error messages are caused by the rbWord error. If you restart Biblioscape and go to "File | Database | Rebuild Database", it should work fine.
you are right! It works
you are right! It works fine, many thanks!
