i m running LANtastic so i dont have access to the program FILER ;
the command which seems to make the error occur is "REINDEX".
However, if i delete the CDX file and recreate it from scratch the error does not occur. So i guess i can use that as a work around for this problem
Thanks for the help.
Dave.
