Thanks, Woo. Weird ... this thread is converging with the other thread I'm
in, about importing into Newton Works, because I've just experienced my
second-ever data loss.
I've never used any soup utilities, and frankly I don't have a clue what a
soup looks like and so I'm afraid of poking things I don't understand and
thereby messing something up royally. But now I have a little problem:
Today, after importing several large RTF files (in the 200-550K range) into
Newton Works on a 4MB card, after one such import I started getting a -48005
error, which I looked up and it means something like "corrupted object,
can't recover". Works will no longer launch unless I remove the 4MB card
with all the big documents on it. So I assume that the last RTF file I
imported got corrupted somehow.
Is there anything I can do to fix this without losing everything on the
card? If I use a soup editor, how do I recognize a corrupt object and how
do I fix it? Or is there a utility that somewhat automates this?
