Fortunately I had just designed the database in question the other day. As there were only 3 records in it, I decided to just start from scratch. I'd still be interested in thoughts and/or ideas on this though.

Fred,

Next time before you reconcile follow these steps.

1. Before any type of reconcile, make sure that your current application is backed up (using either My Computer, Windows Explorer, or the Backup Application menu tree selection in the Application Utilities portion of the Sesame runtime menu tree).
2. Make sure all users are closed out of the Sesame application and, if you started designer from the runtime Sesame, that you have closed the application in that copy of Sesame.
3. From one of the client workstations, using Sesame runtime, select File / Server Administration. Enter your login user id and password (default is ‘admin’ and ‘hello’) and you will see the Server Administration screen.
4. Click on ‘Stop This Server’ and wait for Sesame to close down.
5. Reconcile your design changes back to your application from the Designer module.  If you get a message saying the application is already in use, Stop. Go check and make sure that Sesame Server is actually shut down. Make use of the Task Manager on the server computer to be sure that there are no Sesame.exe processes.
6. Restart Sesame Server on you server computer.
