DBFLOOK Useage
DBFLOOK is a tool to view and modify the contents of dbase format .DBF files.
You may also count records that contain matching text, and/or extract
matching records to a cloned DBF or Text File. Content search for records is
also provided (Forward/Back), as well as search of all DBF's for exact/partial
field name match, and search/view found of all DBF records for content.
The search all DBF functions also analyze DBF header vs file size for mismatched
record counts vs file contents, one sure sign of DBF corruption. You may also
use DBFLOOK to clone (repair) a new DBF header onto a DBF, either as an overlay,
or a prefix to the existing DBF file.
DBFLOOK will show you related index files based on name similarity, and the
index expressions for all noted .NTX/.NDX files. If you are an Xbase developer,
DBFLOOK is for you!
Just set your default directory to the one containing your .DBF files and
type DBFLOOK, or specify a path and/or file on the command line, or answer
with a path when DFLOOK asks you what path to search for all .DBF files.
Use F1 for help menus and enjoy!
Registered users have called it an indispensible database debugging tool!
