Example: in Hoster I would search by id for "All Summer Long", I would notice the song name would be Aal summer long, a typo was apparant. I would go into the songs database and find the song, correct the typo, then search in hoster and find the record and see it as corrected. Now no new records are importing to the songs database, and If I make any corrections to any records in the songs database, those corrections do not show up in the hoster software. When I added a couple extra songs, they did not even show up in the songs database, however Hoster did find and play them just fine.
Any changes you make to songs.mdb are not permanant (not written to the kma file) until the song is pulled up in Hoster's edit song screen and have the changes "applied". I don't know enough about these to know if an added column would also be saved to the kma header.

The 3.318-3.321 period was when MTU was looking for a more Vista tolerant location for some of the files including songs.mdb. When it did this I don't think it copied the old one. I think it re-reread all the KMA's header info and created a new one . That may be why all your changes gone.
