I only meant the AV thing as an example of an intermittent environmental issue that might cause something in your shutdown routine to fail.
Once I got my head wrapped around EXCEPTION handling vs. ERROR handling I started using a lot of TRY..CATCH blocks to deal with issues rather than bubbling up to the application error handler. You have so much more control over what happens after the event. -- rk -----Original Message----- From: ProfoxTech [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Ken Dibble Sent: Tuesday, July 30, 2013 12:53 PM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: Indecipherable VFP Error 2115 >For example, if the problem is really related to PACKing this table, do >you really care if it happens every time?

THAT's interesting. The AV scanner is set to exclude .dbf/.cdx/.fpt files, but who knows how buggy the latest version is (see my thread on email security protocols... heh.). TRY...CATCH for that is probably a sane thing to do. Still, I'd like to see if anybody else can come closer to explaining what may actually be happening here. Thanks!
