Points well taken, none the less...

Let me take a different approach here. How about creating libs (not an
external) that have functions like open, close, set order to, seek, append,
delete, pack, get, put and so on. The tables are in use now I just want to
use Rev as a front end without ODBC. However if nothing like this exists I
suppose that I'll have to decide if I want to take the time to make it (not
likely) or not use Rev as the front end. I wonder about Python...

Dave,

Do you need dbase files or can just be another format? You can use serendipty library. It will not give you SQL but it will give you those old school feeling using record pointers and navigation. Also, if the problem is in the deployment you can always check Valentina or wait till SQLite external is available, both will give you nice SQL features.

Also, try doing windows in Python... it's awfull even using PyObjC... Better use Rev. So the point is, it must be *.dbf files, like you want to migrate old records, or it must be a simple filebased database with no fuss?
