>VFP says my database is invalid. I can live with that. But I can't seem to fix it. Here's what happened. I am building an application based on an existing app written in Clipper. I built the database nd the tables in VFP6. I built an exact replica of the tables in Clipper along with an conversion program to drag data out of the old and into the new formats. I used the VFP database & tables for setting up the screens and added some data for testing. When that was complete; I copied a set of the converted tables to the test area and tried to run the VFP program. Stupid move... Now I get a message saying the database is invalide. When I try to validate it, the messages say that 3 of the 5 tables have structures that do not match the database. I have checked and that does not seem to be true but I don't know how to fix it.

If you do VALI DATA RECO, it should allow you to remove the offending tables...have you tried that?
