Re: Problem with Songs.mdb

When you opened it the other day, did you see all your song files in it then ?
What I'm wondering is did you accidentally save it while it was open ?
If so this could have altered it.

When you saw the message about user access control, that is part of the instructions you should have followed before starting Hoster, have you done all the recommendations as mentioned here: http://www.mtu.com/upgrades/hoster/windows7-changes.htm

Under System, it has system type, 64 bit. I know Hoster can run on 32 and 64 bit, so I don't understand why this keeps coming up. I'm still working things out on 7, buy XP seemed easier, plus I knew where to find things.
Thanks,

I have not seen this Icon you mention but is probably due to you not following all the recommendations, sometimes after installing it may ask you if the program installed OK, if it does press yes.
As far as I know there is only one version and it runs on 32 or 64bt. I have not herd of this problem before.

What I would try is Go into C\MTU\Hoster folder and delete your songs.mdb

Then if your songs are on an external hard drive make sure to have it connected before starting Hoster. When Hoster restarts it won't open right away it will rebuild the database, you should see a small dialog saying something like indexing x amount out of xxxx amount, Hoster will open when this is finished.
If you then get Hoster working OK, instead of opening the songs.mdb directly make a copy of it and open the copy in Access,then you wont spoil the one in Hoster.
