Hi all. I'm entering a client's data into a database - the largest section of this is 4000 records holding images and keywords. The problem I'm having is that FileMaker keeps bugging out on me. It seems that if I enter over around 200 records without closing and reopening the file, the database becomes corrupted, and I have to recover it. Which doesn't always work.

The data set is quite large - two small JPEGs (about 30K each) and one large JPEG (about 300K) plus various text fields. Is FMP flipping out over the size of the data?

Thanks.

Stanley

You probably have a corrupted graphics file. The file sizes you describe are very small. Wait until you're dealing with 10 to 15 3 MB pictures per record before you get excited about file size.

Start over with a clean clone and see if that helps. If you import a corrupted image, it will corrupt the file.
