My data base got corrupted and with and I/O error, after investigating a bit and following some instructions I was able to disassemble the .ODB, the following root structure was discovered:
[folder] Configuration2
[folder] database
[folder] forms
[folder] META-INF
[folder] reports
[file] context.xml
[file] mimtype
[file] settings.xml
A data file located under “database” folder was extracted. I have created a new .odb database and try to import the content from the data file by extracting the content of the new database file and replacing it with the content of the old database file. However, the data is not being imported using this method.
I have also opened the data file with a text editor but some of the content becomes cryptic such dates and times. Also the copy and paste feature does not work. Importing the data in three different ways has failed.
I am looking on a way I can import the data from the data file that was extracted from the .odb database. Any ideas how to accomplish this without losing any data?
Any help appreciated.
