I tried to just use /UPDATE, but it didnt seem to do anything. So I guess I had to Generate a new database?  ??? Not sure.

I havent played with this long enough to really know what I'm doing yet. I was at work messing with it, now I'm at home and have a few moments to fool with it more.

I'll keep ya's posted!  :beer

UPDATE: This is why I used the /NEW command in the batch file string:



I kept getting this error everytime.

we're in the same boat.  I'm at work too.  bouncing back and forth between what i'm SUPPOSED to be working on and what I WANT to work on.   :beer

like I said before it seems like the /update switch should use the info stored in the INI file.  it'd be awesome if it did that.  makes it pretty simple.  Just like launching the program and clicking the update button.

That seems like it'd be the most useful.  once you have your default options set up in the config, how often do you change them?  for me it's easy.  never.

Same here, I dont really ever change the config4.exe options at all.

I have mine setup just the way I like it.

Every now and then someone comes over and says "Hey, can this do ???? " and i'll play with it after they leave and find out if it can.

If I cant get it to do what is asked, then I answer to them with a "NO! tried that already." Then usually they just reply 'OK!'.

Fordman.

typically changes people ask about aren't with the database building process though, right?  it's usually something that can be configured through the program's options. 

also, I get that same error you put up, but if you add the other switches telling it where to get the data from, it works.  but still seems to rebuild the entire db in a way that doesn't look right to me.

My albums look good when E-touch starts up. Nothing different than using the config4.exe regularly.

I take a closer look and report my findings!

well for whatever reason it worked last time I did it.  it'd still be nice if it used the defaults when just using the /UPDATE switch or if you could at least tell it to check all the other boxes. with other switches.
