My computer froze up while editing a form in Form Designer. Now, whenever I load the form, it gives me a message that says that I can't save any changes, as if someone else has it loaded. How do I fix this?

You probably have a GFE in either SYSREPOSWINS or SYSREPOSWINEXES. I would verify and if necessary fix them.

Remember to back these tables up prior to doing this.

Well, I logged onto the customer's system today and the problem has seemed to magically correct itself. (Those always scare me.) Anyway, you mentioned in your response that I should backup the tables. How do you back up tables?

It sounds like you held a lock against the table that wasn't released immediately upon reboot or whatever you did.

I often will back up the entire system or at least the OINSIGHT directory itself. That way I am very comfortable messing with stuff. I suggest using WinZIP (it is quick, easy, and offers good compression). Make sure that everyone is out of the system when you back it up.
