The first thing I would do is load "lib/too.l" and then call (dbfCheck). This will list all objects in the DB that are not explicitly assigned to a file. > let me simply walk through an arbitrary database file and list > whatever is in there. If I could I would be able to "debug" this > situation. This can be done with 'seq'. (seq 7) gives the first object of file 7, and calling 'seq' with that object will give the next sequential object. For example, to show all articles in 'app' : (for (Obj (seq 3) Obj (seq Obj)) (show Obj)) or, if you don't know the file number : (for (Obj (seq (db: +Item)) Obj (seq Obj)) (show Obj)) Usually, I put a breakpoint before 'seq', to be able to look at each object : (for (Obj (seq (db: +Item)) Obj (! seq Obj)) (show Obj)) then just hitting ENTER will step through the file. You can terminate the process with Ctrl-X. Cheers, - Alex -- UNSUBSCRIBE: mailto:picol...@software-lab.de?subject=unsubscribe
