Unable to archive selected docuemnt

Hi All …I’m trying to archive my database (not a mailing database).I set the criteria properly in Archive Settings of Database Properties.But when tried to archive selected documents (File - Database - Archive) from a view i got message in the status bar stating “Archiving Completed Sucessfully:0 Documents Archived.0 Document Deleted. 0 Document Truncated”

But if i select “Not Modified in more than” days specified …in the selection criteria and tried archiving (File - Database - Archive) it works properly.

Am i escaping somethin.Please let me know if you need more details or clarification.

Thanks in advance.

Subject: archive settings, advanced tab

There is an option that says something about not removing an item until all responses are archived as well. Look for that and disable it.

Thanks for your reply,

I tried by turning these setting off also but still It is not working.

Is there any other settings?

Subject: Not a supported function in non-mail databases

Unfortunately, archive selected docs is not supported in non-mail databases. ‘Selected by user’ criteria sets can only be used through the Actions - Archive - Archive Selected Docs command, which is only implemented in mailfiles. (Can also be used as a drop target in mail navigator – again, only in mailfiles.)

The online help doc “Selecting documents to archive” mentions this, although perhaps not so clearly.
