Hi;

I've posted this message before...

We have a small network Peer to Peer, running mainly win98SE machines.
Recently a few XPs where added to the network. They replaced 98
machines.

On thr XP machines we get lots of 'NOT a database file' errors. The
problem is that the database is quite OK. All the other stations see
and USE it OK. Only the XPs have a problem opening them. It seems to
happen when most users a logged in.

Any ideas? Workarounds?

Anyone knows if the problem will be fixed by replacing the 98 'server'
with XP or 2003Server?

Thanks for any help,

AK

is this in an application or the IDE?
what version of VFP?

I would look at networking issues in general.
fpd is pretty rock solid.

so on teh XP box if you issue "use f:\MyTable" you get "not a table" and on
win9x boxes -- "use f:\MyTable" at the same time works ok....

I am having the same problem and a little worse. I am also getting
records that are being duplicated somehow. I have noticed that if
there is some other process that is using the table like another
instance of foxpro or msaccess on the same computer... that us when I
get the not a table message. Let me know if you come up with a
solution.

Sounds like an oplocks problem. Search for "Oplocks explained" in
Google.
