That's both good (for you, anyway) and troublesome.

One person here reported getting this consistently on CDXs (well, by 'consistently' I mean that when it occurred it was always a CDX). You are sure, in your case, that it was a DBF I suppose.

It is troublesome because IN THIS CASE the error message seems to be UNwarranted (you've confirmed that all data expected got there). Does this mean that there is a problem in the OS error dectetion/processing or does it mean we've got some flaky hardware on our hands or what???

I'm sure you are concerned. The only time I've had that same message, I was running only Outlook Express and saving a Word document, and all I did was to save it elsewhere and then re-save to the desired place. But it concerned me, and these reports here concern me too.

Anyway, it IS good that your data was all there.

cheers
