I just realized I deleted a database.
FUX0R!!!!!
No backup  ..it's gone   ..I'm starting data recovery, hopefully nothing was written onto those sectors.  I realized it about a millisecond too late  ...damn I hate when I blow it.

/me crosses his fingers for Wiley

I had a guy do that to a music store database the day I was setting up the backup server.  Just thankfuly we had a partial backup .. he only had to re enter about 300 items and barcodes..

Um  ...I hope you are not seriously suggesting that I failed to look in the recycle bin  :angry:

/me checks recycle bin

Hey everybody  ...it looks like the Data Recovery was a success!!!

I wish that were the case  :(  I wrote the thing to a scratch drive on the network while I was testing some other stuff and deleted my scratch drive.  No recycle bin.  The database wasn't in production and wasn't in the backup routine but I had some live data in there.

I knew better Wiley.... was yanking ya chain.  hehe on a network delete there is no recycle bin though .. except in older versions of novel there was like a dump que or something ... cant remember exactly.

Wish you could have saved it though.  Pisses me off when I do things like that.

Sorry, dude

Update:
Recovered an older version of the database with a data recovery tool I had on another drive ...I'm not quite sure why I could get the older one (which was removed in June) and not the one that was wiped out today.  I didn't write anything to the drive before the recovery. ???  I'm missing a few hundred records, but at least it's something.  Ontrack works pretty damn good for being a cheap ass data recovery tool.  thumbs-up.gif
