I've never heard of a problem that bad, no.

Database repairs don't work as you've said, and neither does uploading a blank collection and then re-uploading?

I'd suggest opening a support ticket and see if it's some technical glitch with your account.

Also, if I clear the my on-line db, it takes at least three uploads for Invelos to take the complete db. In this case the on-line db show random entries missing the title, missing profile data, with only the collection numbers. This has been happening for along time. For awhile I have almost give up trying to maintaining a copy an online db.

This problem occurred long before the current version of the profiler and I think has to do the number of
profiled, thus the size of the transfer and how busy Invelos is. This problem became more noticeable once I had more than 9,000 to 10,000 profiles and the time of day, (such as when the new updates come out).

It seems the count problem has come about or is more prevalent since this version of the profiler.

I don't want make a federal case out of this, thus no support ticket, but I raised this problem only out of curiosity.

The copy of my online db is only for reference, not backup, I use external drives for that. They are very cheap now in comparison to the cost in time it would take to redo everything. The drum that collected the test and lift-off data of Apollo and the first 15 minutes cost $35,000 for 786,432 36 bit words.

The reference I speak of for example, I know Skip has a collection I have and I am adding child profiles to it. I'll ask to take a look at them in the my online db  before I contribute them. Others have done the same especially about old profiles that were more less blindly contributed (from the old site) when Invelos was started. Now a lot of these profiles are being looked into to for their correctness and correct them.

I know that is I have try something several times and I don't change anything the problem is not with my db but with the mechanism that moves or collects it.
