I think it's the VFP7 that should be your worry because it stopped erroring when a header's record count was wrong. NOT one of the brighter moves in my opinion!

So it's possible that your table has been bad for some time. How d'ya like that???

Have a look at VFP8's SET TABLEVALIDATE. Seems you could remedy the situation by setting it to 0, running a PACK, then going back to default setting.

good luck
