Hi Gérard, VFP first temporarly renames the .bak (if it exists) > Then, it copies the original on a 'new' .bak > And then it creates the new .prg.
Actually, it depends... If you configure the VFP editor to create a BAK file when saving a PRG file, then you are correct. VFP renames the existing file to BAK. Any read lock remains on the backup file. If you, however, configure the editor to not create BAK files, you will see the behavior that I described.
