The catch is this has to be run where the data is stored. You can't tell from a workstation if a server drive has the cache on.
I'll look it up again tonight and get back here with it.

If there's a programmatic way for a Windows client to tell if the server is using write caching, then your VFP program could give your user a warning: "Please turn write caching off on the server, or data corruption is likely to occur" or "We will not run until write caching is turned off" would probably be more effective.
