The catalog remedy you posted a link to appears to be for a Mac, just wondered if there is another set of instructions for PC. Have had a couple of recent episodes with catalogs that can’t be repaired.

Sqlite is cross platform, so PC should be similar. I really don’t remember PC CLI stuff anymore (10 years since I switched), so I can’t help. You can find out more from http://www.sqlite.org/. Or try leaving a comment on the actual post.

- download precompiled binaries for Windows from http://www.sqlite.org/download.html

- put a COPY of your catalog in the same folder as sqlite3.exe

- open a command prompt window in this folder and type:
sqlite3 Boken_Catalog.lrcat .dump >backup.sql

- after sqlite3 finishes creating the dump file type:
sqlite3 new.lrcat <backup.sql

Question for Windows (XP)
When I type the sentence you wrote it says:
near "sqlite3": syntax error

I typed exactly as you wrote, with all the spaces.
What to do?
