Chaps
Just tried to run AH and got this message. I've been using AH since Christmas so would like to recover from this error without starting again if possible!
 Rick.

Sorry, I should add a little more detail.
WinXP SP3 32bit run as admin (the only user).
FSX Acceleration.
I haven't run AH since yesterday morning, in the meen time, FSX has been busy with some scenery work but hasn't run at the same time as AH. FSUIPC was updated last night, but I don't think any of this is connected to the error, FSX wasn't running when I tried to launch AH. If I launch AH now, it just askes me to set up a new company.

That does not look good. What does the text under the "Details" button say? Please copy and paste it here.
Looks like your Hard Disk and that file has had some corruption so the database is no longer recognised as a valid database. |

Groan, not good. I don't think I can face doing all that again!
I haven't had any other PC related problems that I've picked up on.

Ok - that's not good. Can you send it to me via yousendit.com and I'll see if I can resurrect it? (However, I can't make any promises).

Yes that is normal. It is how Slopey has set it up.

Many thanks for that Slopey, excellent work.
Lesson learnt, something else to add to my backup routine I guess!
