OK, thanks for the repository files, I've inspected them, and I'm afraid
that repository is very very messed up.

Four of the database tables contain corrupt data. Oddly, some of the
database tables contain corrupt data which looks like data from a different
table! It is certain this corruption did not originate just because of a
reboot.

Is the repository on a network drive (bad!) or a local disc?

Did anything happen which might have damaged the repository in the past?

Max.
