C# and Dbase programming

[Spyke]

Hye, I'm a french programmer
I'm using a dbase base. I'm using the OleDbClass for my request and only one of my two table is update.
The index file are not update.

Have you got any solution ?

If your issue is that the index is not getting updated and your version of dBASE is earlier and IV (pre MDX indexes) you have to include the NDX index file in your OPEN or associate them somehow after the open.

But I don't know how you would do that.

I am somewhat amazed that someone is still using that old of a version of dBase [I actually had hair when AshtonTate owned it!].

Is there any possibility of upgrading to a newer database engine????

This made me laugh.

SQL Express 2005 is free, so is mySQl. I would recommend using SQL Express.

I too remember the Ashton Tate versions and still have the manuals and 5.25 floppies. I've used them a lot in the late 90s and still once in awhile this decade. In the 90s, people would send data in Quattro, Excel, Lotus, Oracle, and Access and none of those programs would talk to their competitors BUT they all would talk to dBase III or IV.

I agree with everyone else, consider upgrading to a newer database engine.
