Another good point. I don't think Mike mentioned partition schemes in the 
original comment. My partitions are NTFS.

And my thought was that the 2Gb limit might be a 32-bit FAT32 size limit and 
not a FoxPro limit. I know we used to run into problems with FAT32 partitions 
on USB tabs and files but I just looked it up (what did we do before 
Wikipedia?) and FAT32 is limited to 4Gb-1 byte.
