Subject: DAZ categories after Windows re-install

On the weekend I had to re-install Windows 7 (64 bit) due to the operating system getting slugish.

I've re-installed the operating system and most of my apps (Artrage, Vue, Photoshop Elements, Hexagon, Painter, etc).

Now I'm re-installing DAZ3D ver 4 Pro. I did backup the daz content database, stopped the DAZ database service and copied the database over to the proper location.  I also imported the metadata.

My DAZ Content is saved on a separate hard drives which is for data only.

Previously I had all my Daz content organized under Categories. I would have thought this would have been stored in the content database but all of my Categories are missing.

Other than manually recreating them is there a database option or trick that will make them re-appear?

Thanks kindly...
