She doesn't leave it running all day, and never leaves it up overnight. So I think I can eliminate that as a potential cause of the problems. I can't even fathom that this is possible. It would seem to me that updating the date/time stamp on the file is the responsibility of the OS, not of Fox.

Hi Tim,

Just to let you know, LUPDATE() in VFP 6.0 uses the actual date stamp of the file, and not the value stored in the header.
