Modifying CrossDB files?

Hi

While creating my new collection (about 3500 songs) I accidently selected 850 songs from my internal HD, while I needed the files from my external HD.
The structure is the same, so I thought to do a find replace in the crossdb file. so all file locations would be changed to the ones on the external HD. But when I open the crossdb file now, it states that the file is not a correct collection file.

Is there still a way to modify this file? I used text editor.

Relocate 850 files is a crazy work, so let's hope there is another way.

Tnx in advance

Just re-import tracks to your mediabase and Cross will "see" without relocate.

Thanks, mate!

Yet....in the meanwhile....my @#! macbook crashed. HD smoked, and my collection file was on that disk.
