Mike, I take it you believe in fairies and goblins as well! Don't you believe it. It isn't a problem with the hardware, it is the way VFP seems to interact with the OS. We have so many UPS's that we could power the UK for 20 minutes without power but I still disable all cache as VFP just doesn't like it. You may get it working OK and it may SEEM to work but in times of high loading it will bite you back. Take it from one with loads of bitten arse experience!

Sounded logical, since those devices would prevent power loss/flux and hence not cause issue with DBF. What do you think?
