Autofix a corrupted index file ?

[sarah77]

I've a program written in VFP5 and I open the tables at the begining :
use employee in 1
use payrol in 2
use vacations in 3
and I close the tables when the program is end.

Some times "Index does not math...." comes to the user so
is there a way to detect that index is corrupted and fix it automatically ?

I used to fix it by overwriting the corrupted one by a good copy of an original one then reindex manually.

I hope someone to tell me a way to fix without exiting the prorgam.

Thanks

Hi

I tend to add a re-indexing utilty programme (which includes a backup and restore facilty) with any distributed apps which does exactly what you do, but progamatically. The fix for the error just becomes part of the help files. I would love to think that there was a way to do this by capturing the error, but I have never got round to doing it. Derren
