Using DOORS 8.3; I modified a module to insert a few OLE objects, and worked on it on 10/19/11 & 10/20/11 and I saved it. On 10/21/11 morning, I opened the module again, all my modifications and all the OLE objects I inserted disappeared for those two days. I checked the Module History, and not one modification/change was recorded on either of the two days (10/19/11 & 10/20/11) and that the History record shows 10/18/11 then 10/21/11, skipped 10/19/11 & 10/20/11. I am using Windows 2003 for the DOORS db, and MicroSoft Word 2007. I didn't have this issue when I was using MicroSoft Word 2003. |

Re: DOORS Module modifications disappearing along with the Module History Yes perhaps you didn't save, but if you were cut off you'd have some message saying so. Perahps IT restored the database on 21-Oct from backup of 18-Oct. Perhaps look at other modules seeking History for 19 and 20. Perhaps they restored this module. There was also some bug associated with multiple folks editing in Shared mode and loss of History and Edits, but I'm not very good at finding such things. However, IIRC this is a History bug, not an obj-attr-value bug. If you left the module open in Shared mode for days then perhaps History is out of order, since it displays in Session order first and date order 2nd. If you opened shared on the 17th, left it open, and edited on 19 and 20 while someone else got in on the 18th, your history will be BEFORE their history since your session number is before theirs. Someone moved your module away and replaced it with another module and renamed it. You either edited the wrong module or are now looking at the wrong module.
