Bruce,
About the only other approach I'd think to suggest would be to close and reopen the tables.
As others have noted FoxPro buffers its data and the FLUSH command, well, flushes *g* those buffers to disk. Again, as also noted, there is the intervening hardware/network issue though if the the data has been purged from the local machine to the server then the only issues to keep the data from being correctly saved would be a network failure, server failure or someone at the server unexpectedly shuts it down.
Best,
