This is extended table from FlagShip documentation. You can took it in text version from: http://www.fship.com/ftp/docutxt/dbfspecs.txt As usual without any references to original authors. Be careful using any iformation included in this table. There is no even signle row which is 100% correct. Most of different combinations of field type and size I created myself and are avialable only in [x]Harbour but are marked as present in other languages. Some information looks like copied from my old messages "as is" and were not updated to later [x]Harbour source code when I was extending functionality. Some field type description are directly copied from FlagShip documentation and describes FlagShip!!! fields not the fields I implemented in [x]Harbour, i.e. as "V" fields in [x]Harbour I implemented SIX3 compatible "V" fields and the table describes FlagShip "V" fields which have similar structure to SMT memo fields "M" which I also implemented in [x]Harbour as "M" when SMT memotype is used. It clearly shows that it's only copy and past from other resources and author did not even analyzed [x]Harbour source code. New fantastic result of xHarbour developers without any references to original resources/authors. Good lack. Anyhow this time MultiSoft is commercial firm not only team of open source programmers so maybe its lawyers will want to talk about it with xHarbour.com. best regards, Przemek _______________________________________________ Harbour mailing list [email protected] http://lists.harbour-project.org/mailman/listinfo/harbour
