You have to build up a level of trust with whatever editor you are using to edit and save your code. Vim has never failed me. With VFP, you are using the editor inside the class or form designer, and the underlying data structure unfortunately isn't a plain-text file but a DBF. And VFP organizes this DBF in sometimes magical and complex ways. So it is actually pretty amazing that more corruption problems don't happen. But for ultimate reliability, plain text is definitely your friend. Easier on source control, too. My money is on Jack's SCX dbf being corrupted, and VFP didn't notice.
