Hi Naomi:
As I said... cpzero worked great.
I'm trying to rewrite an old dbase III program in VFP9, and now there's a different problem... maybe related???

When I try to open a .dbf table in VFP (dbf was created in dBase) I get a message that the file is now corrupted.
Boy... if ever there was a show stopper. Any ideas on how to handle this?
