If on a network, if you use tables from a network server, the server disconnects the open files in shared mode, if it concludes that the workstation is not alive anymore. When you wake up the station it tries to reconnect the files. This fails wihin VFP. I suspect this behaviour is by design.

So probably, if this is the policy on this network you could set a timer that fires from time to time (USE's sime dummy file on the network) . Also there are users who are notorious for leaving their appps open for days on end.
