I tried to restore a database with EDB-Manager.
After selecting the backup-folder it shows all backups, but the details-
and ok-button stay disabled when selecting a backup.

Version 1.09 B3.

Uli,

Did you checked the checkbox on the left or just selected an item?

Does the backup contain any tables ?  Check the Selection tab to see.

Thanks. I didn't "see" the checkbox.

I was simply the checkbox I didn't "see".  Since only one table can be
selected for restoring: why did you use  checkboxes?

I think you mean "one backup can be selected"...
Well, I must say I like it as it is because it works as a
"double-check". We must explicitly and deliberately indicate what backup
file we want to restore and that's good - restoring the wrong backup by
mistake can cause a big disaster!

Habit ?  Actually it was just an easy way of displaying all of the
backups and also allowing for selection within one control, and without
having to display another selection dialog.

Not a bad idea. I begin to like the checkboxes
