My best understanding of this when it happens is somehow VFP's file handle
to the SCT is invalid; how or why is a mystery. You may see a TMP file in
the VFP temp files (SYS(2023) location which is the under the hood backup
of the SCT but in general your only option at this point is the 3 finger
salute. As SCT is also the file extension for some VB stuff, they can also
be flagged for scanning/quarantine by AV software, in which case you might
also find something there.
I used to get these a lot with scx forms in VFP 6, and sometimes in VFP 7.
In VFP 9 (SP 1) I only get it when visually editing a report frx. When it
happens, I have to shut down VFP, and everything I've done in the report
since the last save is lost, but the report is intact and will re-open just
fine.
Some people will say they've never seen this; others will say it happens
frequently. It happens to me enough with reports that I will save every 2-3
minutes when working with them.
