>The software gives the user the ability to query a massive database for record. The retrived records are displayed in a listbox. The screen containing the list allows the user to select multiple items in the list and click a command button that will "tag" a list item in the list. If there are over 65000 items returned then FoxPro will give a program error saying it can't reference the listitem.

I think VFP9 gets rid of this limitation - but... if you have that many records you probably shouldn't be using a listbox anyway - a grid would be better.
