This same bit of code is working fine on about 75 different machines from 486-33s to Pentium II 450's with no problem - the only one I've got a problem with is one machine with a LS120. The drive appears to work fine for his other software, ie: Windows Explorer, save to using other software, but I can't read, copy from or to - gives me invalid disk in otherwise working code. He gets out of the vfp program and its fine.

Robert,

I just tried accessing tables off the LS-120 drive and it works just fine. This was with VFP 5, I didn't try 6.
