I have a 6.0 app and I want to add a module that will handle packing tables and such stuff. I created a table containing information on the local tables with the intent to scan through and pack. No matter what I try, setting exclusive to .T. on each table, setting the form's data environment to open and close tables automatically, I always get the error that the selected table must be opened exclusively. These tables exist in a database which are part of the environment for the previous form also where I do not use them exclusively for shared reasons. What am I missing?

Also, are there specific tasks I should be handling related to maintenance of the databases? If so, does anyone know where I can find out more or get code examples?
