[Papyrus-L] Corrupt File

[William H. Shaw]

Thanks Trent, 

That also occurred to me, but unfortunately, List reference  number doesn’t retrieve them either even if the printer was functional. I think Andrew has the right idea in suggesting Utilities, which I can’t yet access. Perhaps someone will have a suggestion on how to reveal the high level access code or how to over ride it.

It's a good thing you can gain access to your references in some way.
I wonder if you can print your entire reference list to a text file, and then import it into a new database?  
If you become truly desperate, this could be an option.

Do you remember when and where you designated the high level access code?  Sometimes putting yourself mentally into the time and place where you chose the code will jog your memory.  

Hope you can get your data back!

The problem compounds. I can’t remember the required high level access code. Is there a way to access or over ride it?

Bill,

Try Index File Regeneration on the Utilities menu - should repair the index file. 
There's also an option on the Utlities menu for printer customisation, which might be worth playing with.

best wishes

My Papyrus Bib.index file has apparently been corrupted. I can’t access about 80 references by edit reference #,  list reference number, or by keyword list, but can get them by edit: author, so I know they are there.  Also, The CoAuthor List doesn’t retrieve some coauthors in papers retrievable by author id’s. In a separate problem, the  reference manager doesn’t recognize my printer, which is different from one previously used successfully. I would appreciate if any one has any suggestions that might work.
