Jan In addtion to Razzak and Dan's excellent suggestions, I would also suggest adding battery backups to all of my workstations. If you have a database open on the server and you are at a workstation without a battery and the workstation goes down, you may get a database corruption. A surge suppressor or a battery on your dsl lines wouldn't be a bad idea either as outside internet connections can be a backdoor to electrical surges. I have seen and heard of sonic walls being fried because they were not protected and sonic walls are not cheap. Bill Eyring
_____ From: [email protected] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of jan johansen Sent: Thursday, September 25, 2008 12:55 PM To: RBASE-L Mailing List Subject: [RBASE-L] - Networks Group, Just had a situation while working at a client. Working quietly away on a backup copy of the database when all of a sudden I'm swarmed with complaints about stuff not working. When I do some sleuting a bunch of the forms are corrupted. Fortunately I work on backup copies so when I need to transfer forms and reports I unload them to a Forms/Reports directly and load them to the working database. Is there a situation that any one can think of that would corrupt forms/reports or is it just one of those things? Jan
