Dah. I¹m embarrassed! I think I must have been nervous because I had a corrupt db yesterday.
BTW, another (probably stupid) question one thing I kept seeing in the FM FAQ was to make sure that the db is closed properly, but I never found what properly¹ meant. Does it matter if I choose close¹ from the file¹ drop down, or if I simply hit the red button on the upper left corner of the document (Mac user), or is there some other way I never even knew about?
