>>>I have a foxpro 2.6 table with over 800,000 records in it. When I do a reindex or pack on it, what appears to be an infinite loop of indexing happens. I have let the table reindex for over an hour and it just keeps on reindexing (more than the number of individual indexes on the cdx file). Has anyone seen this behaviour?

You can run your database through gendbc to get these listings (or use my gentable program here in the files section). Just a word of caution on something that has burned me before.

Hello folks!

How about corrupt MEMO file? We have FP2.6 hospital project with 1M+ records on the transaction child table. Downloads from UT's file are not working properly to this problem. Is there any new approach?? That corrupted and unusable table is currently dumped and we temporarily replaced it with a new one just for the operation to go on. Trouble is how can we be able to retrieved the records from the former one??

TIA
