I wonder when those problems were actually fixed, Alan. MS said multiple times that the problem was fixed with this Windows update or that Windows update. After being burned by file corruption multiple times, I stopped believing MS when they said that issues with the newer versions of SMB had addressed the problems with file-based databases like VFP, Access, Paradfox. Plating Russian roulette with my client's databases was just too risky.

IMO despite some initial problems with CDX corruption and SMB2 there has been no reason not to use it for over 10 years since those problems were fixed. If nothing else it is orders of magnitude faster than SMB1.
