Hi Roman,

I was hoping, if it's not already planned, that you could offer a save as .dat file from the scan window. So, for example, you've just done a full scan of the latest "Hoopla" dat file & it comes up showing that you're missing 10 items, totalling only 3k from a zip file that is 200 MB in size. Rather than trying to describe to someone which items you are missing, you instead right-click the Scan Results window & choose "Save Missing As Dat File". You can then send the dat file off to your local friendly Hoopla emporium & they kindly send back the missing items. OK, this last you can't do, but I can wish. ;-)

Cheers,

Barthax

Already in (for rather long now...) After a scan simply do:
Rightclick->save->fix-datfile.

The created datfile can be used for rebuilding *only*.

Superb! I couldn't find it for looking!

Many thanks. :)
