Dan I had never seen that part of the checking on the DB. I did as you said and am in the process of doing an unload load. Hope this will work.

Maybe compare a backup with the corrupted on and change accordingly.

Tried and all the happens is the settings box constantly pops up. I had to use the Task manager to get it to stop.

As I said, I have looked at the DB with RCOPE and that did not show any errors. It did however show that the settings were messed up. I have tried copying over to the directory a CFG file from another location. That did not work. I tried fixing the settings while in the explorer mode. It will not allow me to change anything. When I connect in the explorer mode, I get a WRITE error but it does allow me in the DB. But then the settings are all wrong.

What happens when you type SHOW CHAR [enter]?

These settings are very strange. There is a CFG file in the same directory as the DB. The CFG file has all the proper settings. I am stumped.

Find a backup and copy it back into the directory with the R:Base executable.
