 Joe,

 As always, you 'da MAN! I did another TeamViewer session with
 Fred and copied the "default.co" file from his other computer to the
 one that was acting up. Problem solved!

 I looked at the original default.co file on the first computer
 and it was indeed corrupted. Putting the new file in place of the
 bad one did the trick and Fred is back in operation.

 Thank you for the prompt and CORRECT assessment of the problem!

 Clark and Fred, what you might try is to make a NEW column order
 CO file ..
 It is very possible that that CO file (which is normally titled
 as default.co or 
 mylog.co, etc etc) got corrupted .. I have only seen one other
 time that the CO
 file got corrupted ...

 Fred might even have another copy of the CO file that dxbase
 uses -- and
 he can simply copy that one over to the computer where he is
 having the
 problems..
