Anything is possible, but you have no direct acess to indexes, so in all
probability the problem is in DBISAM, not in your code. As I recall, the bug
(if we're talking about the same thing) was introduced in one of the later
versions of V3, and persisted thru the life of the product. The symptom was
a corrupted index in a high activity multi user table. Something to do with
an index page not being written to disk when it should, as far as I can
recall.

If you use C/S, you will get other benefits upgrading to V4. I had several
problems with the V3 server, but the V4 server works like a charm.

It's most definitely not being caused by your code.
