Well I got it fixed and I don't have a clue as to how or why. I did not reinstall VFP nor did I Uninstall and reinstall Codemine. I just created a new form. Copied the fields for the old form over one at a time looking for the one causing the problems and of course None did but the new form(s) work like they should. It's just Magic I think.
But I do have a question, is there a way to validate the database and rebuild the indexes other then using the native validate in VFP and reindex? Something that you like and use? TIA.

>You might want to call cmStart with "UNINSTALL" first. Then re-install. If you are getting the error everywhere, then it sounds like something has gone awry. Might be worth deleting Foxuser as if it gets corrupted, it can play all sorts of tricks.

>>Is there a way to recompile all Codemine Classes and so forth? I tried do cmstart with "REINSTALL" and it said it did is that what does it?
>>I may have hosed my VFP since I am getting it on any codemine form even if I have just a cde attached. Yes I am using a CDE with some tables that are related and some that are just for look up. I am going to try the normal data environment and see what happens.
