700K not 700M, so I think I do indeed have a problem...good question though...

>>I have a HUGE problem. Client has an application in VFP6 SP3. The had a table (notice the past tense), events.dbf, that had a 2GB memo file. Appears that the file was corrupted. Someone at client was using VFP interactive, when the file was opened VFP prompted Delete or Repair, the user answered repair. All of a sudden the fpt file is 700K instead of 2GB.
>>
>>Client's last backup is from February.

>>I've never seen anything like this happen before & I've been around Fox a long time, maybe I've just been lucky. Do I have a prayer to correct this problem, and if so how?
>>
>>Thanks in advance for everyone's help...
