Unrecognized database format
« on: September 27, 2004, 10:09:48 am »
A co-worker and I are sharing EA projects and are having issues opening each other's work.  When we try to open each other's project files we get an "Unrecognized database format" error.  We are both on v4.10.737 although I have a registered version and she is still on the evaluation version.  Has anybody else seen this?

Well guys, I have to fess up and plead a fleeting moment of lack of proper troubleshooting.  The issue was that when we committed our project files to CVS, the binary flag wasn't set and the files became corrupted.  I should have suspected this  when the files came out of CVS at about 3 KB for a somewhat signficant project.  My fault guys, thanks for the response.
