Dragan & Vlad,

I can re-compile the project under another name, but I can not delete none of them untill I issue clear all and close all in command window. This is true for any projects and as my colleague just told me, this is by VFP design.

Anyway, the problem with DataDict lies somewhere else.

On one machine I run job, which uses DataDict step. Then I close this job.
I go to another machine and try to re-compile DataDict. I can recompile it under another name, but can not do the same under name DataDict. I also can copy the whole directory to another place.

Some files could be opened or loaded in the memory etc. You can figure out exctly which file is in use by a simple way - met the situation with access denied, then try to delete or move all files from the projects folder to other location. All opened files will fail to being deleted/moved.

Here and there we leave stranded pieces of objects, unflushed buffers, and other stuff we don't want to take care of - why should we, it's garbage, and it's only in memory, discard and try with a new one. Well, I'm not sure the automatic garbage collection works perfectly all the time. I accept that as the price of other comfort and comodity I have in Fox. So sometimes it's just Clear all, cancel, release all, build... or more.
