How does that have anything to do with the price of tea in China?   lol

It wasn't that an index was out of whack; it's that the attempt to fully optimize caused VFP to unfortunately filter the table instead of give me an inaccurate count of the cursor.

Maybe your server should reindex all DBFs every night after office

MYSTERY SOLVED!  IT *WAS* THE DELETED INDEX THAT CAUSED THE CHANGE IN
BEHAVIOR!  I dropped the index, re-ran with the code as it's been the
past 4 years, and it worked completely fine.

So much for my seeing if the DELETED() index helped.   As I said...I
don't think any very small performance gain would be worth the
aggravation this caused.  (Made me doubt other areas working for years
too....you know, the things nobody yet noticed or told you about?!?!?)
