What data is in which wrong fields? Is the "wrong" data consistely
in the same "wrong" fields, or does it shift? How much does it shift
on each record? What characters "shouldn't be" there? How, exactly,
did you copy the files via the floppy?
Again, it sounds like something corrupted the data. What is the exact
byte size of the key, data, and map files on the oiginal Win98 system,
and what are they on the new box? Did the file sizes change?
