>We have a client running a FP26 DOS application which we wrote 10 years ago. It worked fine for 9.8 of those years. A couple of months ago they "upgraded" a user to WIN 95. When this user tries to print one of the reports in the system, they get an error message about file size. Then their PC deletes a bunch of our .DBF files! This is (quite obviously) causing extreme havoc.

If the computer is using Client32 to access a Novell server, Client32 may be eating the files.
