Razzak Since I Believe 1984 I have been a R:> fan! I have always had the opinion (besides dreadful 3.0) that R:BASE was a rock solid database! Today due to my experience and due to this topic I only belive to 99.9999 and a� % that to be a fact! I have managed I belive to secure my databases but I have the feeling I do not understand why. It is hard to tell a user I don�t understand why! I always blaim Bill Gates if that comes to happen but really in my inner soul I believe that sometimes mysterious things could be caused by R:BASE. I fully agree with all what you say from point 01 to point 06 and from own experience I know that the dream team responds in seconds IF I HAVE A ROCK SOLID CASE. This problem is however not rocksolid its it rather a floating one! The only thing I ask is R:BASE to be ROCK SOLID Gunnar Ekblad (se you in London Friend)

Alastair, I would suggest the following: 01. Read the suggestions from the following R:BASE Developers on this list, in reference to above subject: "Javier Valencia" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sat, 28 Dec 2002 10:50:27 -0600 "Ned Ritchie" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sat, 28 Dec 2002 10:52:22 -0800 "Sami Aaron" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sun, 29 Dec 2002 09:56:41 -0600 "Mike Byerley" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sun, 29 Dec 2002 11:30:23 -0500 "Randy Peterson" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sun, 29 Dec 2002 21:30:37 -0600 "Ramsour Mike" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Mon, 30 Dec 2002 07:55:12 -0500 "Sami Aaron" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Mon, 30 Dec 2002 11:37:53 -0600 "Randy Peterson" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Mon, 30 Dec 2002 13:27:02 -0600 "Albert Berry" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Thu, 02 Jan 2003 11:09:38 -0500 02. Check your code for OBSOLETE and/or RESERVED words. 03. Use up-to-date Syntax. For more details: http://www.rsyntax.com 04. Read the .TXT files for each patch with updated commands, etc. 05. Update your code to take advantage of latest syntax, especially, if you have switched your application from DOS to Windows. 06. Last but not least, if you are able to reliably replicate any boo-boo, you should send a sample database along with any related command files, etc., to mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] I can assure you that, if R:DCC staff is able to replicate your reported boo-boo, consider it fixed. If not, there is nothing they can do about it. You should only do that if you are able to reliably replicate that yourself first. Believe me, R:DCC staff has even taken their time to fix crappy code to help current users who have communicated with them directly and have submitted their samples. Nobody will deny that. Hope that answers your question. Very Best Regards, Razzak.
