>>I installed new software at 24 sites today. 3 sites have called about problems with a corrupted Codes free table (VFP 6). I do not know if the other sites do not have the problem are have not had it yet. I did a backup before the conversion program and the backup Codes table is OK. The conversion program did not open or change the Codes table. They copy the backup Codes to the current Codes and everything is OK for awhile but then Codes gets corrupted again. I have not found a pattern as to when the Codes table becomes corrupted. But what I can be looking for?

I feel a little better. Did a restore and the Codes table and it was corrupted even before my conversion. It is just a mystery as to why the old software did not give any error messages and and new software give the Corrupted Header message. The error routine has not changed and the use of the Codes table has not chnages.
