This suggests that you copied only the database file itself and not its rollback journal. That can lead to corruption. The best fix is to go get a fresh copy of both the file and its rollback journal, make sure they both are in the same directory, then open the database file. The journal will be read and will automatically roll back pending changes, restoring the database to a consistent state. Failing that, you can try to do a ".dump" of the database into a fresh database. If ".dump" gives problems, try running it separately for each table in the database file. You should be able to recover most of your data that way, but some patching and fixing will still likely be necessary once you are done. -- D. Richard Hipp <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
