>>Yes, I asked my user if they properly quit the application and she said that she religiously exits the app as soon as she's done with data entry. 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.

Sure you're not looking at the 'Created' date instead of the 'Modified' date?
