For Norman, When trying to understand the Qubide code you might look into an old problem I have with using DBAS. With Suqcess, all database mutations are immediately stored on the device but I found that after making a lot of changes, DBAS/Qubide lose track of where they are and the _dbs will become corrupted. Also the Import command can't create a new dbs with the field lengths set individually. These problems don't exist when using a ram or flp device or a QXL.win with QPC2 or QXL so Qubide seems the likely candidate. The Trashcan option also seems to be not save. At one time after using the Trashcan_obj, some files which were not in the can were wiped from the drive, dir showed they were there but the file itself was empty. I had to reformat the drive and restore from a backup (trashcan off of course).
