Hi everybody,

I have done some testing on this. And here are my conclusions:

I can consistently repeat the problem in any Win2K Prof. Computer.
We have the problem since we upgraded the PC's to Win2K.

I repeat it like this:
Enter VFP6
in the command window type: Modi Form test
Drop a textbox in the form
Press CTRL+W (It's the same whatever method I use to save the form)
Press the reset button of the computer.
When Win2k comes back, I enter VFP and the files test.scx/t are trashed.


This happens in 10 out of 10 times I repeat this steps and I tried them in 4 different computers.


Other conclusions:

- All the forms that were opened and saved in the last 2 hours (this number is obviously not precise) get trashed if the power fails on Win2K.
- FRX/T are affected as well (I imagine VCX/T also).
- The write cache property of the disk doesn't affect this behavior.
- SP1 doesn't affect this behavior.


So, without a UPS the probability of loosing work if the power goes down is very high.
I hope Microsoft adresses this problem shortly.
