Will add to my list, but as far as I know it works properly. >BTW - As I understand it, every time I close my database (even by clicking >the top right "X") I save a "new" version that is opened next time I access >that database. Is this so? (Again according to my check with Explorer just >then the answer is yes). CFT-Win is a "database" application. As such data gets updated as you work on it. Closing the database assures data integrity by closing out all files and making sure that any buffers are written to the data file. Hope this clarifies.
