Subject: Re: [DUG]: Paradox repair
Hi Mark,
There is a utility for repairing Paradox tables floating around
somewhere. I believe it is called tutil<something>.exe - I'll see if I
can hunt it down for you. The other option is to use the Table Repair
utility in Paradox, if that is available.
Rgards,
Bevan
