Hi guys. Sorry I haven't responded, been busy.

I don't have version 11, but I wouldn't have the time to update the program even if I did. Things are just too chaotic around here.

The problem, most likely, is the links out to the files. Markus likes to rearrange things or add things in between other columns. Someone should be able to go in and redo those links so they work right. It's not all that hard to do but takes a little time.

Go to the tables and make a new one, choose link table, go find the right ootp file and choose it, hit advanced, choose the specs button. You'll want to delete all of those specs and make new ones.

You need to note what fields are in those tables now, needs to have the same columns linked in with the same titles as they've always been. When it's all good you hit the save as button and make sure it's titled right (example: "Games Link Specification" is the comma delimiter, "Games Link Specification1" is the other one (colon, semicolon?)). Once that's been done for all the linked tables, there's 13 of them, it should work fine again.

Post back here if no one can get it working, I'll try to hook up with someone to email me some files and hopefully fit in some time to play with it.
