Windows 2000 2 GB file limit

[Don Coleman]

List:

I have a client who has two fP files that are mirror images of each 
other except for the data contained therein.  One is the working file 
and the other is an archive file that contains records archived from the 
working file via an archive process run by MS Task Scheduler each 
evening.  Last night the key file the reached Microsoft 2GB file size 
limit which stopped the archive process.  I renamed the file temporarily 
and set up a new key file and ran the archive process this morning but 
would like to access the now-unavailable archived key.  I can obtain 
Tuesday night's key file from their backup but would still potentially 
be missing some data from Wednesday.  Does anyone have any suggestions 
on how to allow filePro to access this key file.  Currently, the fP 
Directory report the number of records as a large negative number.  
Sorry to post a question caused by another Microsoft liability but I 
need to work within my client's system.  No need for any Microsoft 
rants.  Any suggestions appreciated.
