I just got the same error message and went to the same KB articles but they weren't very helpfull. I just installed SP3 the other day and I don't remember ever running into this error before. Even though the KB article is dated 98 I can't help but wonder if SP3 isn't part of the problem.
Is there any way out of this mess? VFP won't recognize the database and I've got 15 tables I don't want to recreate.
Tiger got to hunt
Bird got to fly
Man got to sit and wonder why, why, why
Tiger got to sleep
Bird got to land
Man got to tell himself that he understand
