1. Is it ALWAYS THE SAME taf that gets corrupt or is this phenomenon occuring on different tafs ?
No - A different taf this time
2. In the case it is different tafs getting corrupted, then were these tafs originally written in versions prior to 5 ?
This is Tango 2000 version. Yes, there are some files that were built before I upgrade from 3.6
3. I encountered a year ago something I suspected might have been bugs in the conversion of older tafs to v.5 within at least the Windows version of Studio 5 and therefore did convert all my apps thru a lot of "drag and drop" into new app files.
Okay, so why is it so random?

Tango 2000 Win2k SQL 7 All packs and critical updates
This is a very old thread, but I said I would post it again if it happened. You will notice that the last time this happened was on December 17, 2002. It seems to average about once every 6 to 8 months, however, this time it did not happen for almost 10 months. I tried getting some more info.....
I found the offending taf and had to rewrite it from scratch. It obviously was corrupt for some reason. I wrote the new taf EXACTLY like the old. Same if structure, same code, same searches and same db connects. Works fine now. This is driving me batty.
The only new info I have is that I upgraded to Win2k since the last corruption. This time I got an access violation error as follows
Event ID 10 Application Tango Category Runtime [816] Fatal Error At 0000000 READ EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION at 0000000
Can anybody shed some light as to what is going on? Is it possible for a Application error to actually corrupt a taf file? Anyone else ever see this happen before?
Next time something like this happens, I will post on this thread with any insight as to why. It might be a few months.I have. I've had to start a new application file and drag the entire tree from the old app to fix it. Beats rewriting.

Well it seems to be working, but I am not sure why. Maybe one of the records I deleted was corrupt. But I must say that during the past year, I have had taf files suddenly stop working and go corrupt for no reason that I can fathom. When run they will take up 100% of the CPU and bring both the Watango server and the SQL 7 server down (both machines). The only way to fix is to rewrite the taf from scratch again. This has happened to me 3 times now. I come in the morning and both machines are running extremely slow. I can go through the Witango log files and find the entries that KILL the process. That shows me which taf is screwing up. Next I go and redo the taf file from scratch and everything works fine. Very random and 2 of these tafs have not been touched for at least a year. It drives me nuts, but it is fixable.
Anyone else have anything like this???
