Sergey,

Thanks, that solved my problem.

>I don't know about FoxFix but VFP8 and later can detect table corruption which previous versions wouldn't. See INFO: Data Reliability Enhancements in Visual FoxPro 8.0 mskb #814131, SET TABLEVALIDATE Command help and VFP8SP1 Readme for details.

>>1. A server with VFP 8.0 DBC tables crashes.
>>2. One specific table cannot be opened anymore ("Table is corrupted, it must be repaired before it can be opened again...") in VFP 8.0 nor in VFP 9.0.
>>3. We run FoxFix 4 on the table but that gives no file error!
>>4. We can open the file in VFP 7.0
>>5. We open the file in VFP 7.0 and copy the file (COPY TO ... CDX) to a new named table.
>>6. We now can open the new table in VFP 8.0 or 9.0 without problems, no data loss.

>>Can anyone makes sense out of this?
>>Does FoxFix 5 solves the problem of the table being corrupted and not giving an corruption error in FoxFix?
