As a matter of fact these programs are the only thing that has access to this sever except for myself and one other programmer. We had the user ID set up with rights only to the directories they needed and unlimited space because we never know how much room each will need.

There are a couple of things that come to mind, Jeff. Most significantly is the fact that you've got 3-4 gig free. FPW sometimes has trouble with drives with more than 2 gig free. Quite frankly, because it's a 16 bit program, it fails to evaluate more than that much space properly. That may be what's causing this. You might try sticking a line in your error handler to including reporting what DISKSPACE() says is available. Why it works in the interactive mode...?

You've mentioned just re-creating the table on the fly, so I'll make another suggestion. Since the program has its own id and login, limit its free space to 1.9 gig. That may allow you to bypass the problem without making any code changes. I'll admit, however, that this is just a guess.

Best,
