This may not be the right forum for this question. I keep records of bills for my business in FM7 on a Mac using OS 10.4

For some reason about 170 of my records in a file of about 500 records are missing. I'm sure I didn't inadvertantly delete them, nor are they omitted.

Is there any way to fix a file like this or do I have to restore everything from paper backups?

There could be a few possiblities. First do you have some kind of script with a loop in it that possible could have deleted those records? Second, you may possibly have file corruption. You can try to run 'Recover' but I dont thin it will do anything to bring back missing data.

I am assuming that you did not back up copies of your data.

Sorry.
