Spoiler :
I have been very ill, and am now better.
While on "hiatus," I decided to have a very serious data recovery pro take a look at an external drive I'd forgotten about. I use quite a few external drives for different purposes, and had upgraded them all from 500 MB to 1 GB. I thought there was a chance that an erased copy of the Archive might have resided on one - and I was correct! The pro I used was able to (largely) restore the data tree structure, so I no longer had a gazillion unmatchable "Attack.flc" files, and, given all the "spare time" I've had, I was able to piece together most of what (relatively) little my pro wasn't able to.
Spoiler :
I shall be slowly returning here as I catch up on all of the "real world" activities which I've been unable to tend to for some months.
Rejoice! (Well, I am, anyway ... )
