This could be your problem - if you didn't binary it to the PC, it could be corrupt on the PC - in which case you're in trouble... > > I tried to create a new file and dictionary from the UV command prompt and > then copy the file and dictionary over. > > I tried creating a new file in UniVerse and sizing the file like the known > working files. > UV doesn't care about that sort of thing - it should "just work" > When I try to do a UVFIXFILE... an error indicating file truncation results.

Do you have the year-end file still sitting somewhere on the hp box? Disk is cheap nowadays.

Back up the hp box over the network with rsync or something cleverer that'll do incremental snapshots.
