Right now i have no access to my development-environment. But check if the MOUSEDOWN-Event in your CANCEL-Button fires earlier as the VALID-Event.

Look at the Fox-Helpfile When you open a table again in another work area, the table in the new work area takes on the attributes of the table in the original work area. For example, if a table is opened for read-only or exclusive access and is opened again in another work area, the table is...

within the properties from label/field you can also manually enter the top/left position

😁I just was writing the PACK-Stuff like Chris mentioned before. I stopped use the PACK on a network-drive, because this process can take a lot of time. Instead of PACK I do BLANK this record and re-use it when I insert new data. (datarecycling).

I got this already. I had once a similar problem, but more then 15 yrs ago before i upgraded to VFP9 (used VFP6). Also only on network-drives. And running on W2k/XP-machines. Sadly about same time i upgraded all my progs to VFP9. So I didn't really follow this behavior. Are You familiar with...

As far as I understand, the file disappearing event doesn't occur when the program only run on local disk. Only when connected to the network. Does they have a machine running exclusive as a server (7/24) or just a dedicated pc-workstation with the shared folder?

So You do not use UNC-Paths Does your missing tables have memo-fields and/or indexes (xxx.FPT / xxx.CDX). Are they missing too or only the "xxx,DBF"

as shown in my picture i create a vertical line as ruler over the whole page. so i can easy adjust the left or right position of those fields. the field.top position i set 0.01 mm less then teh corresponding label in front. so the text has almost same position in the horizontal view. . in newer...

The sharedname was only mentioned as an example. In my systems i only have the "servername" for local network or the "IpAddr" for far networks in the environment. My DataPaths are variables inside my application.

One Question. Does this missing tables have memo-fields (.fpt) and/or indexes (.cdx) an are those also missing?

Set this UNC-Path as an environment-parameter like "FarDataServer = \\FarComputer\SharedPath" and you can access them with Lc_FarData = GETENV("FarDataServer") To access them by explorer just enter the path "%FarDataServer%"

You also can access all filees also by the whole Networkpath like USE "\\FarComuterName\SharedPath\Userpath\Filename".... DO "\\FarComuterName\SharedPath\AnyProgram" with "\\FarComuterName\SharedPath\Userpath\Filename" therefore my question how You do the access on those files.

How You access those files?

Do You mount the folder that is shared on the server as a local drive using "NET USE". like "NET USE X: \\ServerName\SharedName"

in case this field has no additional chars except the numeric ones just set INDEX ON VAL(fieldname)
