Error Message 'Thumb.db is Not a Valid File Name'

Q.  Why do I receive the message "thumb.db' is not a valid file name' during the end of year process?

A.  You can click OK through the message. The end of year process should continue.

Thumb.db has nothing to do with Agvance but indicates that at some point, the data folder was displayed using the Microsoft Thumbnail view. This action created a Thumb.db file (which is harmless).
