Hi Paul,

It seems from this conversation one solution to accessing isolated xbase 
tables is convert them to SQLLite, manipulate them within dabo, then 
convert them back to a DBF file. The old file could be renamed, the 
SQLLite database 'hidden from view' and the file replaced with the 
exported file.

I know SQLLite has some utilities for this. if they could be run from 
the command line maybe I could speed up the process.

This solution does not however provide support for xbase tables 
associated with other files like shapefiles. This import, export option 
could break the spatial index by modifying the record numbers.

I'll do some more investigation and look at the dbfpy routines mentioned 
by Adrian.

Cheers Simon
