I just got the damaged file message and went to run recovery to extract recent data to import into a backup but the recovery command won't run. I'm able to run it to the point where I name the recovered file and save it. At that point, I get a very rapid dialog box that I can't read, then nothing. No message about blocks recovered, etc.
I've run recovery before on files with no problem (under Mac OS and Win98) but wonder if there could be a problem running it on XP. I can try recovering to FMP5.5 or to 4 on Mac OS9.
Thanks for any suggestions. BTW, we're a small non-profit, hence the old FMP and why I can't just send it off to FMP for recovery on the hope they can do something. Also, I'm reasonably proficient with FMP and spreadsheets.
