Hi Randy,
>For example, if I issue: SELECT * FROM Dummy, and there is not a DUMMY.DBF, the program stops with a file open dialog. This is not desirable in an Automation Server situation that can handle a file not found error much better than a permanant wait state.
Found out about that one, eh? Hey, it's in the docs as one of the errors that aren't trapped by WC :-}
There's no way around this unfortunately. I've been bending Randy Brown's ear on these
issues and I think this might be addressed in VFP 6.
FWIW, VB 5.0 has an 'unattended' mode that does not support any UI whatsoever. Even
errors don't bring up dialogs there...
