My sequences have all disappeared. What happened and is there any hope of recovering them?

Found my sequences. It appears to be related to the WCS problems. Normally, I plate solve my images before uploading them to VPHOT. Evidently, I didn't do it on this batch and VPHOT couldn't recognize them, even though I have a FITS header line with the name of the sequence in it. Likewise, VPHOT couldn't/wouldn't plate solve them. It gives some sort of error that there must be more than one image of the same object?

Hi Jim:
I still see my list of sequences and can open them on images. Have only checked a few so far.
Can anyone else please check?
Ken
Mine are still listed and useable.

Jim, Ken,
Yes I can see and use my sequences.

The VPhot sequences are on the place and a few I tried work well.
I have a habit to save all created by me sequences - the way to prevent some software failure.
