Data Loss

I’ve noticed that I’m suddenly missing some data. What happened? What can I do?

One of the most critical aspects of your database is what gives it its name: your data. A wide range of possible problems can affect your data, but the most dangerous is accidentally deleting a record...or worse yet, discovering that you had the wrong found set when performing a Delete All Records command. FileMaker doesn’t have an undo function, so if you delete a record, it’s gone forever. Be sure that you haven’t simply altered your found set to exclude the records you’re looking for. Go to Records, Show All Records to recall all the data in your table.
