are still listed with Comp leted status. Files that were archived more than two
minutes earlier are no longer listed.

An error occurred during an attempt to archive the file. When you see the Error

Import Status panels. See "My Active-Archive P roperties dialog box"onpage52:

2. Reset the status of all files with Error status to Pending status. Click Retry on
the Import Status panel. Another attempt will be made to archive the error
files.
To remove a file with Error status from the bin, you must first stop archiving (see
"Starting an d stopping automatic archiving" on page 55), retry (to reset the
Status to Pending), and then remove the file (see "Removing a file from the
Active-Archive Bin" on page 57).
Removing a file from the Active-Archive Bin
Only a system a dministrator ca n remove a queued file with status other than Pending. You cannot
drag a file out of the Active-Archive Bin.
Removing a file from the Active-Archive Bin, like queuing a file there, has no effect on the original file.
Also, if someone p reviously archived the file, removing it from your archiving queue does not remove it
from any repositories where it has been archived.
Do one of the following from the Active-Archive Bin to remove a queued file with the Pending status:
• Right-click the file and select Re move.
