Missing Songs after import

[xxyzz]

I found out I had a bunch of missing songs that I know I have. I had to reinstall all my files from scratch. They are all either in zip format or MP3G format. I go into the build songs database, select MP3G and the ZIP buttons. I select the folder where I know one of the missing songs are. It then imports and shows up when I go to search for it. I can play the song. After I import more folders, some of the songs that I just imported seems to be missing. As an example I have the song Brown Eyed Girl in the play list and it will play but once I remove it from the play list and try to look it up again in the SEARCH feature, the song is no longer there.

I want to reimport all my songs from scratch if necessary to make sure all my songs are being imported but rescanning ALL of my folders does not seem to be working. I do not know what I am doing wrong. I am not worried about having to make new song books because I already have to since my last computer crash. Is using the Build Database not the way to go should I be using the Index feature instead? I love Hoster but it is getting to the point where it is way to complicated even using the manual.
