Further to my previous email, I just wanted to ask about the WinBMD program re saving. Yesterday I opened up 1883M3-J0757 to find that only the 1st part of the page was saved, so I went on to finish the following 2 columns, entered +PAGE,0758 at the end, saved batch & exited. When I went to do a Verify today, only the first part was visible again, the other 2 columns had disappeared again! I understand that 1883M3-J0756 had unfortunately been overwritten with info from 0757, but exactly the same thing with 0756, 1st column there, the other 2 not. Also the header on the top left hand corner is incorrect & can't be altered. Any advice on this one please? Thanks Louise
I may not be the first person to ask you whether you filled in the first page of BMDVerify correctly, saying that you had a three-column scan. Also if you ever think you have lost a recently-transcribed file, have a look in the WinBMD 'File' menu and see what the folder address is in the 'Define Save Path' entry. It could be that you are saving your file in a different place on your computer from where you expect.
