  2. **        file:        d_cpystr.c
  3. **        purpose:    routine to create a new dbiii file useing the structure of an
  4. **                    existing file.
  5. **        ussage:    source = (struct DBF *)malloc(sizeof(struct DBF));
  6. **                    dest    = (struct DBF *)malloc(sizeof(struct DBF));
  7. **                    strcpy(source->filename,"source.dbf");
  8. **                    strcpy(dest->filename,"dest.dbf");
  9. **                    d_open(source);
  10. **                    d_cpystr(source,dest);
  11. **                    d_close(source);
  12. **                    d_close(dest);
  13. **                    free(source);
  14. **                    free(dest);
  15. **        notes:    compile with "tcc -c d_cpystr".    include this file in dbf.lib
  16. **                    this code fragment does the same thing as:
  17. **                    USE SOURCE
  18. **                    COPY STRUCTURE TO DEST
  19. **        returns:    0                if successful with structure filled in
  20. **                    NO_FILE        if unable to find file
  21. **                    OUT_OF_MEM    if not enough memory
