Recover Certain Deleted Items? - D-Tools Forum

escrawford · 03-26-2011, 07:34 PM

We deleted some categories and as a result lost some items (unintentionally). I would like to recover these items but don't want to restore the full backup. So I figured I could open the mdb backup file and export the items to a CSV that I want to keep, then import them to D-Tools. However upon trying to open the backup file it asks for a password.

Anyone know the password, or be able to recommend a better way to reach my objective?

You will need to contact D-Tools Tech Support to get the password - they require that you complete a NDA form to get the password.

You can manually make a backup of your local database, restore your other database from backup, export to CSV file, replace the manually backed up database as current database, isolate items in CSV, and import ...

On Windows XP this is located at C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\D-Tools\SI5\MasterTable.mdb

Make sure you close MMPD before doing this.
