>>I have been working on a data conversion PRG for bringing in data from a FPD 2.6 app to VFP 6 SP3 database. I just noticed that if I have SET DELETED OFF and append from SomeTable, the Deleted mark also comes over now. I do not beleive this to always have been the case prior to VFP6 and maybe is even new with SP3. I do know this was a problem in FPD 2.6.

I know this was not true in FPD 2.6. Tried before this post to make sure I was not hallucinating. I am almost certain the deleted did not come over in VFP 3. I can not remember about 5. I do know that my first data conversion from 2.6 to VFP opened the 2.6 tables exclusively to pack them before appending from them for that very reason. I was having trouble with deleted records not being handled properly regardless of the SET DELETED setting.

I have been able to resize frames for a while now. I am using NS 4.5
