Database corruption bug

We are using Intrabuilder V1.5 (german version) on a Windows NT 4
machine. 
We just try to follow an example from Goggin et al. book 
"Intrabuilder Front Runner" in

chapter 13: Security and Encryption:



We have defined some Database Admins and Users.



We select file|Database administration and log into a DBASE database


We select Window Security, then Window Tables and there 
..\intrabuilder\samples\customer.dbf (actually in the german version:
kunden.dbf)

Then click: Edit table

The Table Priviledge Window opens. We just click: OK.

IB reports an error: Table not found (in german).

We click: Close
We click: Close

and exit IB app.

And it's really true: the file customer.dbf vanished completely from the
disk!

Worst thing that can happen to a database admin...


Has anyone an idea? 
(Maybe we get even an answer from Borland's support!)



Thanks a lot!
