    Disappearing program mystery

    And thanks to everyone who made suggestions. I've modified the program to disable the timer while it is off doing some work and added a call to SetProcessWorkingSetSize() to reduce the memory footprint of the program every 24 hours. I'm monitoring the situation to see whether or not these...

    Disappearing program mystery

    Thanks to all you guys for your suggestions. I hadn't thought of disabling the timer while the program is off doing something else. I just figured that, since it passes control to a different function, it sits and waits for that function to finish. I'm going to try disabling the timer to see...

    Disappearing program mystery

    I have a small VFP9 program that is supposed to run 24/7 on a workstation to import data from text files that are sporadically generated by another program. It uses a timer to check for these text files on a user-defined schedule. Occasionally, this program just disappears from the workstation...
