[RMXP] RMXP WEAPONS AND SKILLS DISAPPEARED?

Hi! I'm a noob!
I have a problem, and maybe someone could give me some advice, please?
I'm using RPG Maker XP. I've made two custom actors, assigned their classes, and then I assigned them custom skills and weapons. Well, on one actor, all his skills and weapons appear in the game. For the other actor, despite everything in the engine's database suggesting otherwise, she doesn't have any skills or weapons. She should have one weapon and two skills. I've checked to make sure her weapons are available for her class. I've made her weapon her starting weapon. I've checked to see if anything weird is up with her skills, but they seem to be assigned to her. I'm totally confused. Does anyone have any idea what's up?

Thank you for your time!

Make sure you start a new game. Initial stats, class, starting skills, and starting equipment are assigned at the beginning of the game. If you load a saved game that you saved before setting them in the database, she'll still have the old stuff.

Thank you very much. That solved my problem. :)
I appreciate your time.
