>FOXUSER.FPT disappears! It happens only intermittently, not every time I quit VFP or turn off my computer. At one time I had MS Explorer open and I highlighted FOXUSER.FPT and FOXUSER.DBF (my version, in my folder, resources = on and directed to my folder), and then went over to VFP and quit the application, and right there in my own eyes, I saw FOXUSER.FPT literally disappeared from MS Explorer! I went over to the trash bin, it's not there. I did a search for the file and the only file I found was the default one in VFP directory. How can it disappear like that? Got any ideas on how this could happen? Corrupted memo fields? This has been happening since I upgraded VFP (6.0 to 8.0).

Did you try to delete foxuser.dbf and foxuser.fpt in case they are corrupted?
