jason-23:
That happened to me about 2 weeks ago with  t-invoicer, sucked! pretty much lost everything until i remembered that i made a back up which was two years old. try to do a system restore point.

whitewater:
not sure how to do it...even my backup is not working...wtf? how can the back up not work....this sucks.....

screenxpress:
I've been a software developer of sorts for years and sounds like great software if it creates dedicated file type file extensions and does not make it's own periodic backup for situations like this.

Thanks for that info.   

ZooCity:
It's a real self-defeating thing to do but, if you use proprietary software systems, always have an "analog" backup of your own design for times like this.  Something that might be laborious and annoying but, in the event of the unspeakable, could be migrated to a new system manually or simply archived in searchable manner.  .csv files, .pdf, whatever you can manage and demand clean export options from your software developers.  You never know when someone could drop out of biz or pass away, taking the knowledge of those unique file extensions and coding, and your data, with them forever. 

We've been slacking a little on this and I need to get back on it and seeing your nightmare situation just reminds me all the more.

Good luck man.  This does indeed suck.  I freak out if our system is down for even a few hours during business hours.
