Verify File Options

Feature

Version 3.1 of the Goldenseal accounting software adds the option to view all problems, if a file is damaged.

Suggested By

Turtle Creek testing.

How to Use

The Verify File command checks each record in your company file and makes sure it is correct.

To verify, follow these steps:

1. Choose Security from the View menu, and choose Verify File from the submenu.
2. Goldenseal will check each record and report any problems.
3. Goldenseal usually reports only the first five errors, and then gives a total number of problems when it is finished. If you'd like to see all errors, hold down the Control key while the verify is running.

Technical Details

Goldenseal is able to fix some problems while it does the verify-- you can run it a second time to see if they were automatically fixed.

If a record is damaged, the best bet is to delete it. You may also contact Turtle Creek Software for help with the damaged file. We can nearly always fix the problem.
