Yes, this is the conclusion I am coming to, it's probably faster to just re-do the turn. I will check out the TotalHost tools, to see if anything can be done with that. Right now, I am just trying to see if I can recover any of the .X file.

Your suggestion about loading up old turns to rebuild the history helped. Even though I only have 10 turns worth of history, it helped. At first not all of turns had the history "stick". It seemed like I did have to load the turn, make a change, and then save it to get the history to stick. Then load up the next turn.

Considering the sensitivity of these files, and the time some of us sink into these turns, does what sort of backup does everyone use? Seems like the built in turn backup skips the history file.

I have been thinking of scripting something that backs up the directory every 30 minutes (checks for any changes first and skips if no changes). Anyone else do anything like that?
