    Corrupt FPT?

    thanks for the reply. Unfortunately, the database structure is out of our control. The Foxpro tables are used & created by ABRA HR software. The reason we had to create this program was ABRA was crashing repeatedly due to the attachment FPT's being over 2GB. Unfortunately, ABRA is not coming...
