Problem With Database
GreetingsSuddenly, one of the dbf files lost 21 records, those 21 records were entered that day and if I check using the browse command I can see that there is no information (zero and blank spaces) but if I check the content of every character field I can see exchange characters.This problem has happened twice, in both cases I was not able to recover the information from a backup, because it process runs at night and the problem happens with records entered few hours before.Does somebody have an idea regarding to this trouble?

I had the similiar problem with my dbf file..
Try opening the .dbf file in Excel or other program that supports opening the .dbf format.
Once opened in Excel you should be able to view the file, delete any "bad data", and resave to a new name (with the .dbf extension).
Also possible to create a new table with the structure of the old table, append records from the old to the new. May salvage records until the corruption is encountered.
Also this issue is discussed on these sites
