Michel,

But, it's not something I can afford to rely on. I can't afford, as you know, to have this stupid message box popping up on the console which will lock the application. That has always been the big issue with PHDBase.

May I ask you whether you've had a chance to check your statement. And if it is true are you any closer to finding a substitute for PhdBase 3.61. Have you had a look at textdb http://www.textdb.net
or considered SQL Server with embedded Free Text Search as possible alternatives. I've got several reference applications with PHDBASE and I am waiting for successful precedent of migration to anything else , though in my case all of them are not Web based which means I can't consider anything else but Foxpro database with certain indexing tool for memo fields.

TIA
Michael
