Dephi 5, BDE 5.1, on dBase tables.
A client of mine has run into this problem with a dBase table. They have
access to the Paradox table utility. Will simply packing, or rebuilding the
indexes fix it? I've run into it here and that has worked before.
Any ideas as to what may have caused it?

I am not a dBase table user but it seems unlikely that a Paradox table
utility will fix a dBase table since their internal structure is totally
different. What Paradox utility are you talking about?

Database desktop. The same form is delivered with Corel's Paradox and works |
fine on dBase tables.

Yes it does and it is not a Paradox table repair utility either. :)

A crash of a computer that runs your app.
You can't completely avoid this with desktop databases.
Delete the Index (with sql statement, or with delete the mdx, idx files
directly)
and recreate it also helps.
Before: backup !!
