Because your information is important, you want to check the database for errors before making a backup. You don't want to back up a damaged database. In addition, you should check a database after power failures, electrical storms, and any time the database is not exited normally.
To check the SkyWrite database for errors:
| 1. | In the Database Explorer, click the Databases option. |
| 2. | Select "SkyWrite" and click the Connect option. |
| 3. | Choose Tools: R> Prompt, select the R> button on the toolbar (third button from the left). |
The "R:BASE R> Prompt" window opens.
| 4. | Type "AUTOCHK FULL" and press [Enter]. |
R:BASE checks the database. The message "No errors found" is returned. If the database was damaged, an error message indicating the type of damage would be displayed.
