PRODUCT: 4D | VERSION: | PLATFORM:
Published On: June 11, 1999
When opening a 4th Dimension version 6.5 database there is a new option to check your structure file as it is opened.
Checking the Structure File:
- Launch 4D v6.5
- After selecting the database you wish to open click the ‘ Options’ button
- Select the checkbox ‘Check the structure file’
As 4D v6.5 opens the database it will check the following components of the structure file and repair them where possible:
- Resource map
- Passwords
- Lists
- Menu Bars
- Database Methods
- Project Methods
- Pictures
- Help Elements
- Tables, forms, etc
- Looking for lost methods
These checks are the same as in 4D Tools v6.5. They are covered in more detail in the tech tip ‘4D v6.5 Tools v6.5 – New Features’.
