Good idea, Rafael. Not sure why I didn't think of that (re: the recno pk column)! I tried to use LLFF to open and parse, but it says it's at EOF already. This is for the file that's 3.25 GB in size. I get a positive value for the FOPEN, but then on my DO WHILE NOT FEOF(liHandle), it kicks out of the loop right away indicating it's already at EOF. I even put a FSEEK(liHandle,0,0) before the DO WHILE NOT FEOF(liHandle) loop but that didn't seem to fix it. Seems like the Fox already drowned on the beyond-2-GB-file. -- Mike Babcock, MCP MB Software Solutions, LLC President, Chief Software Architect http://mbsoftwaresolutions.com http://fabmate.com http://twitter.com/mbabcock16 _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[email protected] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
