There are 3 problems 1) one office has corrupt data but they have a new staff person and we wonder if they are the problem. I am not sure how they can corrupt the date unless they are turning off the computer while connected.
2) We have a start up routine that checks the number of users connected to the DB, if another user is connected skip the Autocheck routine that also makes a copy of the *.RB* files. This happened to the tech when no one else was connected to the db, so he was wondering if anything in Win 7 could make it look like something was connected to the data files. I told him my best guess was AV, then he said it is not scanning our folder / files. 3) We keep daily transactions in a daily table, print the end of day report then Close the day which copies the rows to the History table then deletes the rows in the Daily table. One day last week they had duplicates of everything on that day, like they Closed the day, the rows were copied to the History, but no rows were deleted, then they tried to run the Close day routine again.

I worked hard to assure that in our company anything related to our database and the code that drives it is specifically excluded from virus scanners, especially any on-access scans. That would impose a terrific overhead on file access that accomplished nothing because the source of all our files is internal. Emmitt Dove Converting Systems Architect Evergreen Packaging, Inc.

I am sure the simple answer is no but I was wondering about caching or some other Win 7 features that could cause a problem. I just got a call from a computer tech that does the support for 2 of our offices and both offices have problems. They have used RBase for years but just recently got new computers with Win 7 on them and that is why they asked me to double check. They are using Windows Essentials and the scans are not scanning our DB folder or RBase files. Thanks Marc
