Dear Kobus,
 Thank you very much.. I was able to get it back.
 
 There were two tables, weblinks and weblinks_node, which were empty. As 
you said, i re-loaded them with my backup and everything is fine.

thanks,
Paul

>You did backup your database before the upgrade, right? In that case, just dump that table in your old database with your preferred tool, such as PHPMYAdmin, then open the new database and empty the old table and re-enter the new data. If you actions corrupted the database (specifically that table) this issue should be solved. If it is still not working, it might mean the database structure of Drupal has changed somewhat. Did you use the upgrade utility?

But i am seeing a difference between my local test setup and online version. In the local weblinks directory, i lost the directory structure. This i can understand as there is a change in weblinks module design. But in my local setup i can still see the link associated with each weblink entry ( I can still see the visit http://xyz.com link at the bottom of the node.)
