CheckTable ensures that file system data structures are consistent. If CheckTable experiences any file corruption problem while checking the tables and databases, the table check in progress is aborted, and CheckTable displays an error message.

To find the error, run the SCANDISK command after CheckTable finishes checking the remaining tables. For information on SCANDISK, see Ferret Utility (ferret).
