Jim,
This is actually an extremely difficult problem to solve. Even server databases like SQL Server sometimes get corrupted (though not as often as desktop databases). You're never going to see this feature in FoxPro or in any other desktop database. You're also not likely to see server versions of desktop databases when there are already so many good server database products out there.
