The best way is to start a fresh database file.

In your RDSS1 data folder (which is where RDSS2 is currently looking for its database) - the folder named c:\rdss\data\ - find the file named data.db (file type Database). This is the database file which RDSS2 (and RDSS1) uses. Rename it to something else, for example: data_old.db. Then make a copy of the empty.db (i.e. a fresh, empty database file) and rename the copy data.db

Now the database used by RDSS will be empty, ready for you to add new data. If you ever want to refer to the data in the old database, simply rename the current data.db file to something else, then rename the old database to data.db. Etc ...

In the next release of RDSS2 Beta, I am making this process of creating new databases and switching between multiple database files much simpler - a point and click interface.

There is not a way to remove part of the data from a database.

Let me know if you have any troubles with this.

Ted

Just to anyone :
Make sure you do this before you download a days cards
or else they will not show up when you restart RDSS
