Hi,
I just upgraded from version 3.3.03 to 3.4.05. On the former version, I had the poll mod and the anonymous access mod installed. Now, when I try to reinstall these mods in the admin panel, I get multiple instances of an error message similar to the following:
Poll Mod
Adding Column ANSWER1...
ALTER TABLE FORUM_TOPICS ADD COLUMN ANSWER1 varchar(100) NULL
ALTER TABLE FORUM_TOPICS ADD COLUMN ANSWER1 varchar(100) NULL
-2147217900 | [Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Access Driver] Field 'ANSWER1' already exists in table 'FORUM_TOPICS'.
My questions are as follows:
1. Is there an easy way to reinstate these particular mods?
2. Or, are these mods no longer compatible with the current version and I should start over by looking for new mods?

The erro message you're receiving is pretty self explanatory, it means the fields that the dbs files are trying to add to your database already exist and, as such, do not need to be added again. If you've run the dbs files for both mods and those are the only errors you received then you can go ahead and start editing your code as per the mods readmes. Make sure you have the latest versions of the mods (available at Snitz Bitz), though, to avoid any problems. If you haven't run the dbs files from the latest versions of the mods then run them again before making any code changes or as you are instructed to do in the readmes.
