So to summarize: - if you have the sql file, you don't need the bsr
- if you have the sql file, but it's buried somewhere in your backup volumes, the bsr is the best way to get at it quickly - if you don't have the sql file, you can fake it with bscan Frank, Wow! That nails it for me. I understand now what pieces are for what, and when I need them. Thank you so much for that explanation. But if I am to do a bscan re-build as you sudgest will I have to reformat again? I guess that would be the best way to really test it.
