Dear Land F/X family,

Happy New Year to all of you and your families.

I imported details I created earlier from one project to another but am not able to place them the new project.

I received an error message saying
THERE IS NOT A RECORD OF DETAIL .... IN THE MASTER DETAIL DATABASE.


I created these details earlier last year in the detail explorer and they were there for long time.

I have no idea what the issue is now that I can't see them in the explorer or place them when imported from another project..

Can you help please?

Best ragards,
Nibal
Nibal,

Have a look at this documentation page and try the solutions/troubleshooting there: Error: Not a Record in Master Detail Database (Placing or Editing a Detail).

Thank you Amanda,

I went through the documentation page.

I needed to re-link the details folder but couldn't find the details I created earlier.

What I did?

I needed to re save the details blocks again.

Regards,
Nibal

Nibal,

Yes, sounds like you saved a few details into the wrong details folder.

You can re-link to the old folder and use the export tool in the detail explorer, or you can just re-save the details into the correct folder location. The option you choose will be whichever you think will be faster to get them over.

Back Up Your Details

Step 3 in the documentation page I linked to before also shows how to just copy the files over and then re-create the folders in the detail explorer to see them, but this only works if the folder path to that detail will be exactly the same. I'm talking about the P-CO-AAA-AAA-01 path only, not the rest of the path to the detail folder itself. Any change, and the detail won't show.
