Yes - you can delete them. I've done it before. Don't remember why I did it

but I know it is possible and, in my case, safe.

The first couple records seem to be the "defaults" that FP wants to use for

fonts and such, but if you delete them it just recreates the records......

HTH,

But can I delete just certain records (as opposed to the whole thing)

without

doing harm? I believe so, if it just recreates them anyway. --Mike

You can delete your FOXUSER.DBF & FOXUSER.FPT file, VFP will recreate them.

You will lose your settings like Command Window size & position, etc.

Is there any way to know what the entries mean in the foxuser.dbf? Is there

any harm in deleting any of them? The ones in question for me are as

follows:

PREFW WINDSTPROC F 3784320010118

PREFW SCHEMAPOS F 2001320010118

PREFW SCHEMAOPTS F 765920010118

Sometimes my app won't start correctly, looking for a database in the launch

directory, and it's not necessary (because it isn't used prior to the error

point). The code dies on the SET RESOURCE TO line, and I've tracked it down

to this.

Thanks in advance,

--Mike
