At some point in time you may encounter a problem with your database where it
becomes "corrupt". This can happen for various reasons but it is usually due
to a sudden loss of power during a save operation. If you receive an error
message indicating that your database is corrupt, then you can use this repair
utility to attempt to fix the problem. This repair operation usually takes
care of the problem but not always. That is why it is very important to
backup your data
frequently. Each time you start the program it scans several of the
major tables in your database to make sure every thing is ok. If a problem is
detected, you will see a screen like the one depicted below. Click the
"Continue" button to start the repair operation and when it is finished CAR_PRO
will start automatically. If the repair operation is unsuccessful you will need
to restore your most recent backup set. If you have a need to run the repair
utility manually then choose "Utilities" and "Repair Databases" from the Main Menu.
