When I import songs into holster I cannot find them using search

[salcelia1]

Whn I import songs into holter version 3.316 the import runs all the way thrugh, but when I go and search for the song using the search tool, holster cannot find the newly imported songs. I then try to re-import the same disk but holster tells me that the songs are already in the database. I did try to rebuild the db, but still holster will not find the songs. I imported 5 cdgs and the location to the files were where I put them, yet holster cannot find them. Please help

try rebuilding your database.

I connected to the database linking the tables to an access db and saw the entries I made on the songs.db, but still holster would not find the songs..

you need to go to tools option on the top of the program and select rebuild database. then chose where the files are located then hit rebuild.

I did that and still the songs cant be found.. Keep in mind that right after I import the songs I would assume holster keeps track of where the songs where put none the less i still did what you asked...

[Beavis]

did you go look in the folder where they were ikported to and see if they were there ?

[salcelia1]

The songs where there, the path in the database pointed to the right files, but still I could not do a search in hoster to find the songs..

If you literally meant "all" that's probably your problem . Try selecting just artist and title. Save the others for narrowing other oddball searches.
