User Fields are Missing.

Question: I lost the names of my User Fields, how can I get them back?

Answer: Well chances are you did not lose them you only lost the index to them. This is an easy fix to get them back. I also included an explanation of some of the other fields that can loose its index files.

1) QFIELDS is used to store User's Field definitions.
2) QQUOTE is used to store quote information for quick searching.
3) RPTDATA is used to store detailed quote information for reporting.

Those files will be auto recreated if they are inadvertently deleted. If you have a back up copy, restoring the backup copy will work.

There is another way to get back the user's definitions from the quote files. When you run QwikQuote File Organizer, you can choose to recover User Field as follows:
