Thanks
WOW! Thanks for the detailed answer. I do understand more than I did. I always Imported from my desktop, put them in a New Songs Folder on my external drive. I always let Hoster assign the Book ID. I couldn't care less what ID Hoster assigns the song, as I always pick songs according to the Disk ID (i.e S.C. or CB). Then I used the "merge" command on my laptop so that the database I use at my Shows is always up-to-date. That way my "new songs" are kept so that I can print out a list of new songs for my songbooks.
However, when I first got Hoster I also did my editing on the desktop, and that information did not always show up on my Show Computer, but when I do my editing on my Show computer all the information is there. Plus while I was learning I think I tried to do things differently and not sure how that has affected my database or whether Hoster ever assigned a duplicate ID to anything. I always let Hoster assign the IDs and never pay any attention those numbers.
If I understand you correctly, if I rebuild the database that duplicate songs, if any, will NOT be lost? All I want to do is now put All my kma's on my new laptop so I don't have to.
So... when Hoster builds the new database for the first time on my new laptop, and somehow finds a duplicate ID, will everything still be there?
