| | replace the existing date in the database?
| No I'm afraid not.
| 
| | I have almost 3000 images pre-existing in the index.xml with the file
| | timestamp date on them.  Virtually none of the file timestamps match the
| | EXIF data because of the way I manage the images.
| | 
| | 
| | If the answer is "edit the index.xml and remove the timestamps from the
| | monthFrom="8" dayFrom="6" and yearFrom="2003" attributes, I can do that. If
| | jerking these attributes out without talking to kimdaba about it first is
| | going to cause me grief, I'll pass.
| Well not even doing so would help you, I'm afraid.
Heck, you've been supportive to KimDaBa, let me add this to the maintenance
menu. I'm completely overworked now, so don't expect to see it before, say
in a couple of weeks though.

Cheers
Jesper.
