Razzak,
Thanks for the reply. Update done, will try the UNLOAD/LOAD at the beginning of the week when I'm at work with the full new database, programs. We're actually in the process of updating from 2.11. It's been a long process (mostly due to other things keeping me from working on the project on a regular basis), but I think we're getting very close once I get past this new hurdle.

Just like anything else, always make sure to keep yourself up-to-date with R:BASE versions and updates. R:BASE Updates: http://www.rupdates.com I also suggest performing data maintenance (RELOAD), or a data integrity check using the UNLOAD/LOAD procedure. Corrupt indexes and pointers that cause I/O ERROR(s) when modifying table structure are also eliminated by performing these very simple maintenance routines. The technical article "Database Maintenance (R:BASE 7.6 for Windows)", posted on December 29, 2008 should help you understand the technique and steps to keep you database healthy. From The Edge: http://www.razzak.com/fte/ This will also help eliminate any issues when accessing Data Designer or using ALTER command to add/remove column(s) or modifying table structure. Hope that helps! Very Best R:egards, Razzak.
