Thanks Hilmar.

>>Hi Hilmar,

>> Thanks for the reply. I don't have any specific problem with the 2Gig Limit but someone asked me about it and I wasn't sure if it only related to .DBFs or to all associated files ( .FPT, .CDX, Etc ).

>I understand it is all files. Of course, the place where the problem is most likely to hit is in the memo (FPT), especially if you commit the imprudence of saving graphic files in it (the usual recommendation is to use JPG files on disk). UT members have reported data corruption when their data files go beyond the forbidden limit.
