Facing issue in opening a DBF, generated using jDBF api(SVCON) , in Foxpro

843859Jan 10 2007 — edited Jan 12 2007
HI,

I have coded a utility to convert the MS- ACCESS tables to the DBF files and the vice-versa.

I am using the jDBF api(svcon) to Read and write the DBf file, but I am facing a problem when using the generated DBFs in the foxpro,
When open the dbf file in FoxPro using following command.
FoxPro COmmand: USE <DBF Name>,
it promps me with the following error message
"File .dbf not marked up with the code page, please select the code page", and it brows the file even if i ignore this message(didn't select any code-Page).

But when I use these files from the foxpro programs(I have alread written some routines in the FoxPro whcih use these generated DBFs) program just comes out with the warning message "DBF not in proper format"

Any help 'll be highly appreciated.

Thanks
Hemant
