Do others get this error message? I am using SKY version 8 and it
occurs at times. I do repair it, but it would be nice to never have
it occur again.
I also get a runtime error which I cannot repair easily. That one is
unpleasant, to say the least.

I get the type mismatch often, usually when I first open the index. I just ignore it and it doesn't seem to affect anything. If you check the archives, someone asked about this a few months ago. (It might have been me, when the message popped up at a different time.)
What do you do to repair it?

Under File, File Management, Repair. I find the file I am working on,
and it comes back repaired.

Same as Ælfwine - just ignore it - it goes away with no effects. Not sure repairing the file actually does anything.
It's been mentioned several times over the last few years. A common explanation (not specifically for Sky) is that a field is 'expecting' a particular type of data (text, date, number etc.) but receives a different type. As far as I know, Kamm has not yet identified the code responsible, or intriguingly - why it happens only intermittently. I've tried to identify the preceding actions, but the explanation remains 'out there' yet to be retrieved!

The field expecting a certain type of data doesn't fit my case. I get this message when I open Sky. But as I said, I ignore it.

I'm by no means an expert, but I've been suspecting that this has to do with invisible and/or ignored text (Ctrl-T/K). I've had it happen to me several times. I too just click "Ok" (or whatever it is that pops up with that warning), and ignore it and just keep on indexing. I've never had a permanent problem.
