While FileMaker "Help", and Tech Support ( TSGal ) advise using Recover to fix specific problems, FileMaker's Customer Liaison for damaged files says Recover should not be used It appears FileMaker, as an Organization, is still not quite sure what "Recover" can do.Most Links to Answer ID's referenced in this document are ( unfortunately ) no longer available.What are your chances of getting "hidden" corruption? The four failures above are the result of five different organizations, each running an average of 24 files, for 5 years, using FileMaker's best practices. Even if the files seem to re-open but have to go through a consistency check or recovery, some corruption could be buried in the file" This problem was also noted in "FileMaker Server Best Practices" ( Rev 03-2003 p.13 ) "Any system failure causing FileMaker Server to shutdown inappropriately could result in corrupted files. At this point, you have a clone with no records, but you may also have a file structure that is possibly damaged due to corruption carried over from the original file. Place your new master clone in a safe place. you will need to save a new master clone. Any time you make changes to your file's structure. This problem was actually documented in FileMaker Answer ID 2943 "Strategies for Protecting Files Whose Structures are as Important as Their Data" ". It is difficult to develop an effective backup strategy, when there is no way to be sure that the files you are backing up are OK ( see FileMaker 9 and FileMaker 10 improvements below ). When damaged files run, backups and "master" clones are useless. There is no validation utility ( FileMaker's Customer Support Services explained that since validation can never be 100% accurate, no utility is provided ). What I don't understand is why FileMaker can not detect it. I understand that files can be corrupted by power surges, and by bad hard drives, and can NOT be prevented. a file with over 190,000 records, that suddenly displays "Records: 0", and appears blank, even though these records are still visible, and in use, in a related portal.a file with an annoying pause after any user action.This file ran for a week before the corruption was discovered.
