     Note: You can also schedule complete optimization overnight using QODBCFUL.EXE or QODBCUPD.EXE. Both set the error level variable if errors are detected, and error messages are written into the log file. Passing a DSN on the command line to these programs will choose the QuickBooks company file you wish to use.

    To temporarily bypass your optimizer settings and extract the latest information, you can add the unoptimized tag after the table name like this to your queries:

    select * from InvoiceLine unoptimized where TxnDate >= {d'2006-03-06'}.

    Or you can resync your optimizedInvoiceLine table by running:

   sp_optimizefullsync InvoiceLine
