Zup Settings Reset

galland1928

This last weekend we had to fix a few issues in our database and the process entailed restoring a copy of our database.

To accomplish this I made a backup of NAV, detached our SQL db, created the new db with the exact same name, and restored the db through NAV.

By doing this, the zup file has been reset for some reason.

Any idea why this would happen?

Thanks

Zup files reference objects within a database by some kind of internal guid.

So, since you created a new database, even though it's the same name, your users setting will in effect be refreshed - because the instance of your database objects has changed.

You can also see this effect if you design a form, then save it - users settings in the zup file point to the old instance of the form, so are in effect refreshed - when they open the form again, then exit NAV the settings for the new instance of the form will be saved.

Thanks for the response. Thats kind of what I was thinking, I just wanted to verify it.

Thanks again
