I use Foxfix too (I think my version is 5.1) and use API calls. And I have had it correct error 41 many times. Have you talked to the FoxFix tech support, perhaps they might suggest the solution.

The Foxfix tool DSCAN50X will find these errors but takes 30 minutes to process 20,000 rows. The API call does not find the errors because they are cross-links etc. The GUI interface (which I cannot ship) finds the errors in about 30 seconds. This therefore makes this virtually unusable.
