>>We just finished thread on indexes, and now I got the problem with them. Free table is used with .idx. Smthg corrupts .idx. I can open the table, set index to idx, Browse !, but when I scroll in the Browse window, VFP says : 'Index doesn't match...' So error handling can detect the problem only when a user scrolls or seeks in the table. I know idx could be corrupted because of the crash, ctrl alt del and etc. Maybe the problem is because buffring which I use doesn't coexist with rudimentary idxs ?

Unless you are forced to use an IDX for backward compatibility, I would use CDX if at all possible.
