BCD996T UASD Problem

[teebee]

I have programed all of the sites for the Louisiana State System in the system editor database. I saved it as "LA STATE". After saving and closing. I later came back opened the file all sites were still listed. Did not make any changes to the file again closed it. The next time I opened the same file all of the sites that was previouly listed were gone. I saved it prior, did not do any deleting before hand. The file name "LA STATE" was still in the list. I checked other preloaded systems in the database and all of the sites were still listed. What caused this to be lost. I do not understand how it was there opening it a couple of times then all of a sudden they were missing. I sure do hate to go back a program them all over again.

Look on your hard drive and see if the file is where it should be. If it is, open it in Notepad and see what's in it.

Where at on the hard drive. I am in program files, directories of Uniden,BCD996T_UASD. I see several files but do not know which one to open with notepad. When I open the file name "UASD_sys_edit.exe" it just opens the UASD system editor and there in the list is LA STATE but again same thing, No sites listed.

The files will be in C:\Documents and Settings\(your name)\UASD, if I recall correctly.

Thanks. They are not listed. I guess I'll have to start from scratch and hope it stays saved this time.

Look for this: C:\Documents and Settings\[YOUR_LOGIN_ID]\My Documents\UASD_DataBase

Or do a sesrch for *.usd and find that Directory

Scott has it right. Any file that ends in USD should be your UASD data files, and they are generally just text-based, comma-separated-values files if I recall properly (this time).

Thanks for straightening me out, STiMULi - must be distracted what with picking up my new WRX in the morning.

I think Jay's airborne Puegeot is just fine. Makes me want to pull Gran Turismo back out. :wink:

Run the UASD. Go to System Editor/Setup (on the menu)/Options. The files location is in System Data Base Folder. You'll have to put the cursor into the box and scroll right to read the whole thing, but it's probably C:\Documents and Settings\<your name>\My Documents\UASD996_DataBase\BCD996T\UASD_systems. The file you want in that folder is LA STATE.usd.
