I am able to see some of the files in the restore window from that date 
- June 5 - (and from the imported tape), but not the ones I need. Maybe 
they are on a different tape? I tried importing another tape that may 
have had some stuff from that day and it says "there is no fragment 1" 
for the index file that matches the list below. Do you have any idea how 
I can find "fragment 1?"

Thanks for any help,

Steve
