=================================
As I suggest quite frequently, if you
catalog lots of images...it would be a
good idea to make regular backup
copies of your 2006 Library database.

In the 2006 program...you'll find it at:
C:Documents and Settings
Local SettingsApplication DataMicrosoft
PODPictures.pd3

If you wish to do a search for Pictures.pd3...
be sure to include "Hidden Files and Folders"

To restore the database...just drop your
backup copy in the POD folder and allow
it to replace the current one.

Library database location in earlier verisons:

DIP10:
C:Documents and Settings
Application DataMicrosoftPODPictures.pd2

DIP9:
C:Documents and Settings
Application DataMicrosoftPODPictures.pod
