>>Hi,

>>Sometimes customers send me an error of Invalid Seek Offset that happens when the application is reading from some meta .DBF file included in the application .exe file. My question is, do you think the chance of Invalid Seek Offset would be less if I change the meta data from .DBF to .XML?

I cannot exclude DBF completely (even in the cases where customers use SQL Server) but trying to minimize the problem by converting some DBFs to XML.
