Hi,

I'm using Windows 2000 and developing in VFP 6.

I was working on a form when my machine lost power. On re-boot I'm unable to open the form from my VFP Project and get a 'not a table' error when I try to rebuild the project.

Any possible fix for this?

Thanks in advance.

I've seen this happen at my system too.

When checking the form file in Ultraedit (a text/hex editor)
it appeared that it had been overwritten with the html in the browser I had open at the same time.

Your form is probably not salvageable unless you have backup or source control

Thanks for the reply Torg.

I suspected it would not be salvagable.
I do have source control so I've 'only' lost a days work.
