Windows 7; BK7.1 Everything has been working fine up until tonight when I attempted to add a source to note on the edit page. I clicked on the S and the add source page came up but with a warning box in the center, which read “Damaged data file. The Source record number does not match the position: 1459” This box has an OK button and a red corner X. Clicking on either the button of the X has no affect other than to add 1 to the number following “position:”. Continuing to press either the X or the OK simply increases the number shown. No other buttons outside the warning box on the add source page work - the file, the X, the Select new Source, the Create New Source, the Cancel – all do nothing. I hit the OK button in the warning box about 50 times but nothing happens other than increasing the number. The only way I could escape all of this was Ctrl-Alt-Delete to close the program. From the edit page if I click an S already there it takes me to the source page as expected. The problem only happens when adding a source. What now?

To David Youse Send me a private email and attach both the BKSOURCE.DT7 file and the BKSOURPT.DT7 file. (or zip them and send the zip file) I will try to repair the damaged files.
