Hi Joe,

The two dropped versions have dates of 4/1/2004 and 7/1/2004. There are
older and newer versions that did not get dropped during either the archive
or the restore. The oldest listed version has an 11/08/01 date and the
newest version has 9/16/04. Here are the steps:

1) Connected to a production database, and looked at the history of a
specific file and saw 17 files listed
2) Archived the folder containing the specific file
3) Restored the folder to a test database
4) Connected to the test database and looked at the history of the file and
saw only 15 files listed.

Thanks,
rpfeet
