I promptly remembered it was the utility that screwed my data files worse than ever before and so I wrote my own repair utility with FOX. Quickly deleted "salvdb.zip" forever (purge and overwrite to be sure) and suggest you to do so.

Jerry,
Of course I would and I write that for public domain (as announced about a month ago). Problem is current version is for FP 2.x (SALVDB is older than that and not aware of VFP tables). The VFP version is under construction.
