In some situations, I've seen an example where simple
=reccount()
forces the workstation to re-read the header, and some stray things get straight. May as well work here, though the original problem it solved was the occasional mysterious overwrite of two records added by two workstations (don't know the precise circumstances when this happened, and did the problem get solved in vfp6).
