---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [BUG/PRB.] VFP 9.0 FIX - SYS(9176) ENABLES OR DISABLES CHECKING AVAILABLE WORK AREA FOR OPENING A TABLE FILE November 2024 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- CCB 1. THE SYS(9176) FUNCTION: SYS(9176) - Enables or disables checking available work area for opening a table file Enables or disables checking available work area for opening a table file. SYS(9176 [, 0 | 1]) Parameters 0 Disables checking available work area for opening a table file. 1 Enables checking available work area for opening a table file. 1 is the startup default for Visual FoxPro Advanced. Return Value Character Remarks If we enable checking available work area for opening a table file in Visual FoxPro Advanced, if the work area number > the maximum number of work areas (32767), it will cause the error "Table number is invalid (Error 17)". If we disable checking available work area for opening a table file in Visual FoxPro Advanced, if the work area number > the maximum number of work areas (32767), we can open the table file, but if we use the SELECT nWorkArea command to select the work area, it will cause the error "Table number is invalid (Error 17)", so we can't use the SELECT nWorkArea command to select the work area, we can only use the SELECT cTableAlias command to select the work area. It is the same as Visual FoxPro 9.0 and earlier versions. 2. CAUSE: There are some BUGs in the following code. 3. RESOLUTION: We can write some code to fix the BUG.
