Fabio, I notice that sometimes the error leaves a TMP file in the same folder which has the changed code. fwiw.
>VFP 9 can write large prg files.
>Now, because, at the same time, i cannot open two or more program.prg edit windows,
>i try this:
>open the program.bak in read mode, and edit program.prg.
>One ugly surprise:
>when i save (only save!!!) VFP says to me:
>-
File access is denied (Error 1705)>and
>-
close the edit window, losing all my modifications !!>
>To use VFP within a Dev Team ?
>Example:
>
>- Dev1 open a .prg
>- Dev2 cannot open .prg
>- then Dev2 open the .bak
>- Dev1 works for 2 hours
>- Dev1 a coffee wants drink,
> then it press Save
>- Dev1 the coffee does not drink more,
> but one is drunk camomile!

>An optimal way in order to pass the days!

>Ask: why VFP open a prg in pessimistic lock mode ?
>Expected:
>
>- Open a .prg
>- At first edit operation:
>a) refresh the file with a write lock access
>
>b) when save, if a error occurs, NOT CLOSE THE MODIFY WINDOW !!!!!!!!!

>MODIFY COMMAND SOMEPROGRAM.BAK NOEDIT

>VFP open SOMEPROGRAM.BAK with a write exclusive access !,
