And I think that '10' in "NOTES" ,"M",010,000 in the dbf structure is ignored.

Code: Select all

	AADD(aDBF, { "M1", "M", 10, 0 })
	AADD(aDBF, { "M2", "M",  0, 0 })
	AADD(aDBF, { "M3", "M", 1 , 0 })
	AADD(aDBF, { "M4", "M", 100, 0 })


Gives all the same result... At least in my DBF viewer!

The length of the memo filed in the dbf is fixed as 10, same as date field fixed as 8.

The database stores the file pointer from the respective DBT file in it and not the actual text. The actual text is stored in the DBT file.
