Rebuilding static program elements

---

To increase efficiency, structure information, such as the table and field lists on an Export form, is stored in records in the data file. If you suspect that these records have become corrupted or do not reflect changes you know have occurred (such as a new field that does not appear in the list), you can force Otobase to rebuild these records.

To force Otobase to rebuild a static program element record

Log in as the administrator.
After entering the user name and password, hold down the shift key while clicking Connect.
A dialog displays asking if you wish to rebuild the static program elements.


Click Yes.

Note: Using the Shift-Alt key combination (Windows) or Shift-Option (Mac) while clicking Connect will switch data files.
