Patrick,

If it's a Novell network you should be able to rightclick the EXE, select properties and then look at the Netware tab and see the userid of the last person to write the file. That might give you a clue as to what's going on. I don't know if there is an equivalent function in an NT network.

Have you checked if it's an antivirus program that's maybe hosing the files.

They remain a Fox program (the registry is untouched), but they're useless. I've been recompiling every program on a daily basis, and I can't figure out what's happening.
