>Well, I can not explain it. The little network creatures were lurking around and pulling hub connections perhaps. It appears that everything is up and running now. I did a complete rebuild of the project, Pack/Reindex of all database tables, and attempted to open each form via for MODI FORM. I can not explain it. I am assuming that one or more of the steps above corrected the problem. I am suspecting that the database container or and index became corrupt as stated in the message. The strange thing is that some of the forms I attempted to open did not use the data environment, therefore did not have a cursor associated with them. Well chalk another one up for the X-Files.

Just to close the loop - It appears to be a network cable between the NT server and the Hub which is appearently causing some wierd chatter. I still timeout in VFP when attempting to open a form. That was the latest problem. Hopefully, we'll have a new cable in the morning and put this monkey to rest...
