[wdvltalk] database woes
I was clearly born fairly stupid and have been completing my education... I have just updated ClipGuru into the existing folder and realised that the list of clip sets has disappeared from the application window [ie I can't access them or they are gone for ever]. There is however a database of 589kb that I suspect contains the information. It is not on this computer and I don't know - or how to find out - what kind of db it is. Has anyone a kind word and a crumb of comfort? I am short of devastated but very unhappy that what had turned into a useful reference for a current project was in the clip sets.

Never heard of ClipGuru, but if the clip sets aren't particularly sensitive / private, you could always upload the file somewhere and I'll see what I can figure out from it?

David, Thaks for your response and the offer. I have managedd to get a reply and help from the writer of the program, so I'm hoping that he will guide me - though it looks to me as though i may have managed to wipe the information. His pirst idea has drawn a blank. But if I get no joy after his efforts an think there might be further room for manoeuvre I'll come back to you, if that's OK. I've just checked another clipgru on this computer and the db is much smaller, so there may be some hope...

I've just checked another clipgru on this computer and the db is much smaller, so there may be some hope... Joseph Update news of a result. The problem seemed to be mine; Clipguru [which is a very good clipboard extension] is available as standalone and as installed. I installed the update, but think I must have put the earlier version as standalone. In standalone the db is with the application, but installed it is put in application data. So the db existed but the program was looking elsewhere for its information. My solution is to put a copy in application data, though I could have altered the .ini file. Thanks for your offer David.
