======================= DOCUMENTATION FOR SALVDBF.EXE=========================
SALVDBF was written because a lot of times, especially on a network, the DBF
header is not updated in time. As a result when FOXPRO attempts to USE the file
the error NOT A DATABASE FILE is returned. This utility salvages all possible
records from the passed file. The salvaged file has the same name as the old one
so please remember TO BACKUP your file, just in case. The indexes are also lost
since there is no way for me to know which indexes were set. So the user has to
reset the index file. This utility was written in C using the CODEBASE libraries
and hence is much better that FIXDBF and anything else that is out there.
DISCLAIMER: As always, the author disregards any knowledge of its creation's
problems. (GO TO COVER MY BEHIND)
Enjoy!!!
