>>I am using FoxPro 2.6 on the MAC, and being a MAC it decides to give empty error boxes and force a restart from time to time. Since I was in the middle of rebuilding my project it trashed the project file. If I open the project file as a table and try to pack it, I get a Memo file missing or corrupt message. Anyone know a good way to repair this? I really don't want to have to rebuild the project from scratch,it's awfully large. Thanks for the help.

>I'd try to create an empty project manager table and do an APPEND FROM the original. This might lead you to what records are bad. Then it would simply be a matter of adding the items manually. I've had this problem in FPW, and this approach is the most efficient, short of creating a new project and re-building.

I opened the project as a table and looked at some of the memo fields, and got lucky. I found one that was supposed to be the name and path for a report but instead had all kinds of junk in it. I deleted that record, packed the table, closed it and opened the project OK. I had to rebuild the project and a couple of screens but other than that it worked. Thanks for the advice above, that will help when I don't get lucky(most of the time).
