If you perform an action before opening the **Events** screen, the action will not appear in the list. **To open the Events screen** - On the **View** menu, click **Events**. ## Handling Multiple Copies of Compatibility Fixes Compatibility Administrator enables you to copy your compatibility fixes from one database to another, which can become confusing after adding multiple fixes, compatibility modes, and databases. For example, you can copy a fix called MyFix from Database 1 to Database 2. However, if there is already a fix called MyFix in Database 2, Compatibility Administrator renames the fix as MyFix (1) to avoid duplicate names. If you open the **Events** screen and then perform the copy operation, you can see a description of the action, along with the time stamp, which enables you to view your fix information without confusion. ## Related topics [Creating a Custom Compatibility Mode in Compatibility Administrator](creating-a-custom-compatibility-mode-in-compatibility-administrator.md)
