Deleting a table

If a table has been deleted from the underlying database, this can be detected and fixed by the Configuration Fixer.

  1. With all configuration files closed, select Tools > Fix Configuration > Deleted Table.
  2. In the Configuration dialog, first enter the configuration file that you want to fix, including its file path. You can browse to the file by clicking the Browse button next to the first text box.
  3. The file name you entered with the suffix (fixed) is automatically entered in the second text box on the Configuration dialog. At this point, you can do one of the following:
    • If you want to create a new configuration file in the same location as the original configuration file with the added suffix (fixed), leave the entry as it appears.
    • If you want to create a new configuration file with a different name or in a different location, browse to the correct location and type the new file name in the File name box. A new file will be created in the location you specified containing the fixes you perform.
    • If you want to overwrite the original configuration file, click the Browse button next to the second text box, and navigate to the original file. Be aware that if any problems occur that the original configuration file is not recoverable.
  4. Click OK. The Configuration Fixer runs an analysis of the configuration.
  5. The Deleted Table dialog is displayed, displaying any problems that the Configuration Fixer found concerning deleted tables in the configuration file. Do one of the following:
    • Click Fix to fix all the problems displayed, and then Close to close the dialog.
    • Click Close to close the dialog without making any changes.
  6. Open and re-issue the database for any changes to take effect.
