follow-up.. tried a few tables in a small empty folder, no problem.. and no 
"thumbs.db" message, either.. the real folder is huge, but it's always been 
this big.. as always, "something changed".. :-)

on our big app, can't seem to get Table Lookup tab to work anymore.. it's
always been slow, cuz it looks at every table in the folder, and it always
gives a "thumbs.db" error, of course

but now, it doesn't work at all.. depending on which machine I'm on, when I
hit the Table Lookup tab, it either gives me the OK Abort dialog, or it just
closes paradox.. any table, big small new old, doesn't matter.. anyone else
having this problem?
