>Dear All,
> I have been writting small programs for a number of years. This year I have received problems from customers arising from power failure. After the power failure, the program could not be run. This is due to the corruption of files - its index file has been corrupted. I have to delete it and rebuild the file agian. To solve the problem I copy 'good' related files to replace the concerned everytime when the program is run. I don't think this is a GOOD way. Can anybody tell me the proper way in the programming to prevent this happens?

A good way that would not even involve progrsmming would be convincing your clients/users to purchase and install uinterruptable power supplies (UPS).
