[RBASE-L] - Odd V8 error message

[Tom Frederick]

I have V8 on three machines Work, Home, and Laptop and use all three 
machines for development. All have the 1212 update and did the index fix 
several months ago. The three days ago the Laptop popped up the error 
message " R:Base 5.5 or older databases must be converted. (2967)"  
followed by "This command is currently unsupported, (1120)" then goes no 
further. I can get out of V8 and the rest of the non R:base software 
runs just fine. The exact same current databases run just fine on the 
the Work and Home machines. Databases are moved between machines using a 
memory stick. The only databases are stuff I wrote, all in V8.  When I 
connect to RRBYW14 on the Laptop, it runs just fine. New copies of the 
current database fresh from Home or Work cause the error every time so I 
figured it was something with V8 on the Laptop. Checked the Laptop with 
various utilities finding nothing. Laptop is rarely on the Internet. 
Deleted V8 then reinstalled and updated to 1212 ...same errors. Since I 
cannot get past the error screens on the Laptop I have not been able to 
run any rebuild commands. The Laptop probably needs a reformat since it 
has been awhile, but that would not explain what has happened. The Home 
and Work copies just chug along with no problems. Any ideas or explanations?
