Hi all,

I have lost my To Do lists in PB2021.  I have 2 workspaces with To Do Lists.  I use those To Do lists when upgrading a customer's application from an older version.  They are completely gone!  Seems like it happened after I installed PB2022.

Anyone else have that experience? Any one know how I can recover those 2 To Do Lists?

There is a chance that the ToDo Lists still exist in the PB2021 Registry Hive.

Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Sybase\PowerBuilder\21.0\Target\<your target>\ToDo

You can export, change the 21.0 to 22.0 in the export files and import the ToDo List entries via "reg import".

The registry keys are stll there. I don't want to import them to PB2022 as I just installed it to start testing. I need the WorkSpace ToDo. Regardless the Count on all the targets and workspaces is 0, except 1 workspace, and I added that one entry after I installed PB22 and lost everything. Is the ToDo list stored in a file somewhere in PB? Or just the registry?

PS: My ToDo list is still in my PB2019 workspaces. Just the PB2021 ToDo Lists are missing.

Hi Tracy;

  Unfortunately, the ToDo list entries are buried in the O/S registry. Once this area gets damaged, the ToDo list is permanently gone.

   The key thing to do on a regular basis is to use the "export" feature in the ToDo list dialogue to create a backup that can then be re-Imported in order to recover the list.

Regards ... Chris

Hi Chris.

I also do export it when I modify it. I do that to have a backup and also because I want to sync it between my desktop and my laptop.
