Unarchive Comps

Un-Archive Comps retrieves comps from an archive, restores them to your active Comps database, and deletes the selected comps from the archive.

1.           Quit out of any Day One products that may be running on your workstation. If you are running in a network environment, with shared data, all users must exit.

2.           Start Archiver by selecting Start | Programs | Day One Nova Products | Archiver. The main Archiver window will appear.

3.           Click on the "Un-Archive Comps" button. The Select Comp(s) to un-archive dialog will appear as shown below.

4.           Click the "Select Database" button, and use the subsequent "Select an existing file" dialog to select the archive database from which you wish to retrieve data. Warning: do not select an archive database that contains appraisals and cases!

5.           Select comps to un-archive:

·      To individually select cases, Ctrl-Click on each desired case

·      To select all cases shown in the grid, click the "Select All" button. Clicking the "Un-Select All" button will undo your selections.

·      To narrow down the list, enter the desired information in one or more of the Range Selection criteria, then click the "Retrieve" button. Clicking the "Clear Filters" button will remove all information from the Range Selection fields. Click the "Retrieve" button to refresh the grid.

·      You can also sort the cases in the grid by clicking on the column heading you want to sort by. For example, click on the Address1 heading to sort by Address1 (ascending); clicking the same column again will sort in descending order.

6.           Once the comps you want to un-archive have been selected, click the "Un-Archive" button. The Un-Archive process begins. NOTE: the comps are deleted from the Archive database.
