Most of my clients are small business types. Of course I use VFP almost exclusively to design and write their apps. But one thing that keeps bugging me is when will it be my turn to fix a corrupt table and the all the grief that come with it. Fortunately, that day has not come yet, but I feel it will soon.

There is no way that I'll convience one of my "MOM-POP" shops to fork out some bucks to purchase a client server like MS SQLServer or Oracle.

My question is is there a better tables/database that is "more" stable and "reliable" then the VFP native tables?
