Doreen, Are you restoring the entire database (all twentysome files)? You may already be doing that, but if not, it's necessary to replace all files with the last good backup. After replacing all files, if you still get messages about damaged files, it suggests that the backup itself may actually be corrupted.
I hope this helps...

Hope someone has some insight on my problem with recovery. I know I'm not supposed to use the recovery process outlined in the Ebase manual, so I haven't. I use Filemaker 4.0, Ebase, V 1.02. I have a backup of our database on a zip disk. The copy I have on the backup is a good, current copy. When I try to restore from the backup, Ebase is still saying that "Names is damaged and cannot be opened. Use the recover command to recover this file." Can anyone help me with this? Thanks.
