Maybe you can export the work you have done. Tag the new entries and export them. Restore from backup, then import your new entries.

Yeah, I know but that means 4 days of intense work that I'd rather not lose.
Thanks,

Hi,


I made a real bonehead move when I did a search and replace. I meant to have only one word replaced and instead I replaced the whole whatever (picture caption, given name, general notes) in my entire file. Unfortunately, I did not catch on until I made at least 216 more entries. I hate to lose 4 days of work. Is there a way to blend all the new work I did in the 4 days after my mistake with before making the mistake?


Thanks,
Gloria
