I tried it both ways.  What happened was exactly nothing.  No error
messages or tracebacks.  As far as I could tell (when saving) the
'primary' of each object was unchanged.  In other words any changes made
in the version were not applied, this includes not seeing any object I
had added.  And in either case (saving or discarding) the locks were not
released on any object which I had modified.  I believe at some point I
even had all the details and stupid logging enabled and didn't get any
errors there either.

Since I packed 2 or 3 times in an attempt to get it working I'm certain
it was overwritten.  I could dig a copy off of a backup tape.  But at
this point I've built a brand new Data.fs using the import/export
process (had to do each root object manually) and everything is working
fine.  The bad taste disinclines me from touching Versions for a while.

Thanks, I hope the little information I can provide helps.
