I am still working on the gigantic file problem and have discovered an integrity failure in one source in my database that has been growing wildly: "Bad Repository Id - 1 for Source Id 1585". This was found by Genealogical Companion. How do I find the source Id 1585? I did find one source that was entered about the time of the start of the growing file problem that had a Repository address with an e-mail using the symbol @. I read somewhere that this might cause a problem as gedcoms don't know what to do with that symbol. Could this be what put my FO 10 database off track and caused it to grow so rapidly without much new information being added? When I gedcom into a new database from the problem database, and don't gedcom the multimedia part, there are no integrity errors, even in that repository address for source Id 1585, which is still in the new database. That source is attached to a person and not a picture, but doesn't seem to be a problem without the picture links going along in the gedcom. Why not? I don't know whether taking out that repository's (if it is the correct source 1585) e-mail address (or at least the symbol @) would help, or whether I need to start adding pictures back into the database. I'm afraid the problem will start all over again! Thanks for any ideas on what to do next, and for how to find source Ids. Marg McEuen
