Doug & Russ: How does Bill Gates sleep at night...I know, very soundly. I
too lost my database COMPLETELY as well, gone, nada, luckily I do back it up
about once a month in an Excel spreadsheet, but voila', Microsoft 2007 won't
take in 97-2003 Excel anymore, it just shuts down with the infamous error.
Microsift releases these versions years before they are ready at the expense
of business people till WE refine them. It is truly outrageous!!
I personally am dumping 2007 amd getting a refund.
