>Hi Everyone,

>I have an issue with an application that loads at Windows(9x) startup and stays loaded until shutdown. When the main form loads the database also opens (database is declared in data environment). However if the PC hangs (for some other reason) or is incorrectly shut down, the last changes to the database become corrupted (missing or duplicate records appear next time). Sometimes the database index won't even open and I have to copy it again and do reindexing.
