Rhea:
We have been experiencing a problem with Client32 and VFP for quite some time, and have had to switch several sites to Microsoft's client because of it. The only thing I can find that actually addresses any problem is a Bug Report in Information Week...

'Novell has identified a data corruption problem with its Client32 2.2 for Windows 95 when it is used to open a large number of DOS files with Microsoft's FoxPro for DOS. If you use a FoxPro application that opens more than 170 files, you are at risk of corrupting your databases. Novell must totally redesign the client, which it plans to in the next release, in order to fix this problem.'

We are hoping it will also fix the problem in VFP. We see the same results with our 5.0 application.
