End-user ran a series of purge programs - including PR300. Fortunatley, he ran the PR300 with the option of creating a copy file (written to the work directory). We need to bring these records back and are looking for guidance. I suppose that there are two options: MS add-ins and importdb. There's no conversion program for PRDISTRIB.

Anyone have any tips in advance? Thank you!

As long as the data integrity is consistent (i.e. they have all of the archived files), you should be able to use importdb. I would copy your current data to a test product line and load via importdb ALL of the archived files, and run some reports (e.g. PR260) to verify, etc.

Thanks! I think that they had found another solution but I'll make sure to pass this along.
