Hi Desmond, There are known issues with file based databases like VFP with Windows from Vista forward. (Well technically I've seen Vista & & referenced but have no reason to believe that 8 isn't also affected.) I suggest a little search using something like "file corruption SMB".
Here are some links that I've found useful: <http://www.caseware.com/support/caseknowledge/kb-271> <http://www.dataaccess.com/whitepapers/opportunlockingreadcaching.html> <http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/832d395b-6e6f-4658-8dbb-120138a4cd7c/smb2-registry-settings> -- rk -----Original Message----- From: ProfoxTech [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Desmond Lloyd Sent: Wednesday, July 03, 2013 1:11 PM To: [email protected] Subject: VFP9: File Read Error on an Index File: Windows 8 Good Afternoon! Problem with VFP9 App. Runs on a network about five or six workstations accessing it. Have one user that has been using Windows 8 (in the event that makes a different) and working fine. Today they were attempting to start the application up and they are getting an "error reading file" when accessing a cdx file! Seen that with a lost network connection an a program, but never an index file?? Any thoughts anyone?
