Yes, that gives no errors, lists the table in my R:Base tables list. It also did not give the reserved words error.
The error that I now get is #2585, Cannot find dBase file in current directory or path. It just attached the file, how can it have a path error? This occurs when I want to open the table. I probably shouldn't be opening the table? Creating a form based on the table does work. However, using that form creates the same error. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of [email protected] Sent: Tuesday, September 14, 2010 5:06 PM To: RBASE-L Mailing List Subject: [RBASE-L] - Re: Problems attaching DBase table Hans: if you type "SET ANSI OFF" before attaching, does that help any? Karen I end up with a "R:Base eXtreme 9.0 (64) has encountered a problem and needs to close" error and Windows wants to call home. Following is my process (using R:Base eXtreme 9.0 (64) with the latest updates installed): - Connect a R:Base 9 database - Attach a DBF table, no index - receive error msgs that reserved words are being used and I update each of those when it pops up with an acceptable field name. When it is through, it comes up with the Microsoft problem. What am I not understanding that is creating this error? I am not using an index, yet, just wanting to open the DBF table. This problem exists if I want to open a 52MB table or a 1KB table. I keep getting the Windows error message and R:Base crashes/terminates. R:Base opened the file or it wouldn't have known about the reserved word usage for the column names. Thoughts, please? Thanks, Hans Manhave
