>I have converted my app to SQL Server database. So this has eliminated the corruption of the application DATA. But my app still, on occasion gets the "Invalid seek offset" error. The error happens when the application tries to access/open/load meta data which is still in the DBF format. I believe that "Invalid seek offset" is caused by some kind of PC memory corruption (be it from a buggy printer driver or some other).

It has been a long time since I resolved that. The illigal offset in my cases Always had to do with Network connections that were dropped (even briefly). Since we've upgraded to SQL server and hold all the meta data locally or embedded in the executable, I have not seen it since.
