The total record count in the dbf is 9331 and when we do the re-build, the count is 9331. There are 9331 kma files in the directory.

If I am correct in assuming that the numbers returned represent the record number in the DB, then the title/artist fields are within the specifications, the longest one being 29 characters.

The same thing happens when I refresh. I am aware that to click "no" lets is proceed, but it bugs me when I can't figure out why something is happening. I have even gone so far as to merge and re-index. Still the same results -- 6 errors with no reason.

Misread your post...I am able to refresh in MicroStudio with no problem, only occasionally the first 4 songs have no title/artist info. If I enter them in MicroStudio, all is well.

My main gripe with MicroStudio is that it only reads the first file if the import directory is a zip or rar. Convert them to mp3G or bin and it works fine.

i can find nothing wrong with my files.
this started a couple of versions back. and there seems to be no answer for it.
MS gives me message (parameters incorrect) or runtime error.

It is not that it reads only the first file in the zip but will only show in the list the MP3. When you play them it does play right with the lyrics.
That is if you only have one song (2 files) per zip which is the way it is supposed to be. If you are zipping multiple songs in one zip then neither Hoster or Microstudio will read beyond the first song.

Question

I understand all of that, but these songs have all been re-named to ensure compliance with proper import protocol (Artist_-_Title) and checked with either WinZip or WinRAR to ensure that only the two files are contained therein. This is the point where I check to ensure that the lyrics are clean and clear and that the audio is properly syncronized with them. It is also my last chance to verify that the title and artist are correct and that there are no objectionable lyrics. (We run a family-oriented show with no pofanity or suggestive music allowed).

This is when I am trying to load them into MicroStudio for checking before importing into Hoster. The directory used is clean and clear and as I mentioned only the first song will import. The others show as errors. The imported song plays correctly. The only way I can get MicroStudio to read the files is to convert them back to mp3+g, kma or bin files. Then all works as advertised.

We are using XPPro in all of our machines with all current patches applied. MicroStudio version is 4.06
