>>I'm assuming that you received this message in FPW 2.6. There are two possible causes, one being that the header is corrupted and the other being that the number of records in the header doesn't match the number of physicla records. Try opening the screen as a table in VFP 5.0. If you can open it, the it means that the latter is the problem. In this instance, simply copy the screen file back from VFP as type FOX2X. If you can't the header has become corrupted. In this case, a product like Refox can regenerate the screen from the generated source code.

You can't convert it back (at least not without modifying the table itself). I was speaking of opening the scx file as a table (see above), then using the COPY TO..TYPE FOX2X to copy it back.
