PSE 5 Organizer

Help, please..... All of a sudden I'm not able to delete files from the Organizer. I get this message
The ODBC date source reported the following error:
"[Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Access Driver] Invalid Argument."

Repairing PSE didn't work. Any other suggestions?

Do a File->Catalog->Recover and see if that doesn't fix it.

I have over 5,000 photos in the organizer and it hangs up when I try this. Gotta do the good old three finger salute (control, alt, del) to get going again.

Linda,

Does it look like it's hanging at 33% or 66%? Usually it's not really hanging, it's just thinking really hard. Some people have had to leave it running overnight to get the recover to finish.

It looks like it won't even get started - but I'll try the overnight idea. Thanks.

[Sharpli]

That did the trick. Thanks so much, Trish. I guess I'll have to be less impatient in the future.

[troush]

Oh good. It hasn't worked for a few people, so I was worried. Make sure you do the Recover often.
