>>>Was brought into a company which has 350 user VFP 6.0 system with roots back in a 2.6 application. The system has scaled way beyond the exisiting system of 60 users. The FoxPro backend crashes 5 times a day with data corruption.

>>I agree if you cannot fix the present problem it may cause the same or similar result with a new system. Things to be concerned about are Networks (drivers, updates, routers, hubs, cables, etc.) Using Stonefield Database? Hardware problems? Lord, the list goes on and combined by a "less than perfect application", anything goes!


>And what effect, if any, should the use of Stonefield have in this instance?

Just curious,

Larry (with appoligies to Jim);

Since this was my post I thought I might comment on it. My mother taught me curiousity killed the cat - information brought him back. Allow me to state my position. I took the third sentance from the original post from John, and suggested Stonefield Database as a possible means to correct the data corruption problem.
