If you use TRANSACTION JOURNAL (jlog) even a CLEARFILE is logged and can be reapplied (if the file you cleared is not unmarked for logging).

Else let's hope you have a good backup.

Dear, jpb.

How we test, when i used clear-file, select return 0 count.
But when open file with FAR or other editor, they show records.That why i asked, could you export information from file and import anothre file. OR maybe recreate header of file.

I suppose you're on WIN, sorry - no experience at my side...

A CLEAR-FILE will remove the links to the data file. it won't actually physically remove the data unless you do a resize or the data is overwritten by another process. That is why you can still see the data when you view the file with an editor, e.g. JED.
I would suggest you use jpb's method to retrieve that data. If this isnt possible then perhaps you can manually recreate the records using the data which is viewable from an editor.
