Shamefully, I must admit that I have never used jemplode. Ever. It used to be based on the lack of USB support under Win98 & W2K, but since then, well, I have never tried it...

When you say you cannot rebuild the database in emplode, what kind of errors do you see? Have you ever installed the maxfid fix?
