The database upgrade fails and all email addresses are removed.
I have a backup of the original database but now don't have the original install for the software.

Hi Pete
Did some other software delete them? Perhaps your anti-virus software misflagged them and they were quarantined?
At any rate, you can create a new/blank mailing list db and copy the MLK_HIST.DAT, MLK_HIST.IDX and MLK_HIST.BLB from the new folder to your old one.

Nigel,
Sorry , resent the correct db.
None of the db's under MLK have a mlk_hist.dat file! So, if I try and upgrade any of the others it will fail again.

Hi Pete
Are you sure this is the correct database? It is a database from MailList King v3 and was last modified in 2004.

Hi Pete
It sounds like a drive corruption issue, rather than a database error.
Does the specified file, h:\myserveraddress\mlk_hist.dat, exist?
If so, please email me your database for analysis.
To do this run MLK and click Ctrl+Shift+I to display your database folder. Then close MLK and put all the files named MLK_*.* into a zip.
You can skip any files named mlk_send_task_*.* or OLD_mlk_log.*
If the zip is too large to email then might want to use a web transfer service:

I tried this again with another copy of the database and got the following error:
An error was encountered updating you database: DBISAM Engine error # 11010 Table or backup file h:\myserveraddress\mlk_hist.dat does not exist
I click OK and get
tblGroups: cannot perform this operation of closed dataset
then nothing is brought in.

Hi Pete
MLK automatically makes a back-up of the database when upgrading so it is unlikely you have lost anything.
But firstly, can you ensure that you have opened the correct database (and not a new or blank one).
Check File > Recent Mailing List DBs for other databases and/or search your system for the file mlk_main.dat (including hidden folders).
Also, what version did you upgrade from?
