This is really a re-post of an earlier problem. I have a FM 8.5
advanced database the consists of 8 tables that are related and
shared thru Filemaker network. A week or so ago I made what I thought
was a minor update to a calc. It began "Recalculating" 2,664 records.
A minute later is was down to 2,663 records. Prior to that change the
database was running fine.
Two nights ago, after checking relationships, rebuilding a calendar
table that I had hoped would solve the problem, I changed the calc
again. It began it's recalculating of the 2,664 records. Since it was
already late in the day I left it running and went home. The next day
it had only gotten through 784 records. There is even a hesitation
when I access the scripts; they open, but for a moment the box is
blank , like it is looking for something, then finds it and the
scripts come in.
I have had out IT service check my computer and I have run virus
programs, I have consulted with Filemaker. I've saved compressed
files, made clones, and rebuilt one table.
I know I'm asking a lot since you can't experience the problem in
email, but if anyone has any ideas I would really appreciate them
since the only solution I have is to rebuild the whole thing from
scratch at this point. I have back ups of the data but not the
structure. Lesson learned.
