Hi,

I had a VFP5 written application that just open some
dbf file in exclusive mode, delete some record, pack it.

All this is done in a while loop until the master record is from a file list where it will indicate which file to delete and pack.

However, when I run my application, it is running fine without any error,
but don't pack or delete my dbf file.

But when I add some delay like WAIT '' TIMEOUT 2 command, it actually
delete and pack my application.

I am running on win2000.

What is causing this problem, please kindly advise and help.
Thank a lot.
