Use google traductor:

Code: Select all

#include "FiveWin.Ch"

FUNCTION ADD_FIELD( oMeter, oText, oDlg, lEnd )

   FIELD AGE_CODIGO, AGE_GRUPO

   LOCAL cChave
   LOCAL nTotal := 100

         //-> Se o campo nao existir
         IF ( cAlias )->( FieldName( nConta ) ) = "AGE_FONE3"

            lExiste := .T.

            EXIT

         ENDIF

      NEXT

      //-> Para Mudar a Estrutura do Banco

The simpliest way to add a new field to an existing dbf is as follows:

local cgroep := space( 17 )
local oBrush, oBar, oBmp
local cOldBmp := GetProfString( "Desktop", "WallPaper" )
local oPrn, fntArial1, nRow, fntArial2, cName, cLoca, cPost
local nRecNo := RecNo()
local cTitle:= "Sociale Kruidenier Management - Field"
local cText:= " veldnaam(max10)+N of C+99+9 ?"
local cBmpfile:= "question.bmp"

set filter to
SetDeskWallPaper( "Fivewin.bmp" )
SetHandleCount(75) // to open until 75 files at a time

set century on
set date british
set epoch to 1950
set deleted on

if MsgGet( ctitle, cText, @cgroep, cBmpfile)

cnaam=LEFT(cgroep,10)
cchar=SUBSTR(cgroep,12,1)
clenght=SUBSTR(cgroep,14,2)
cdecim=RIGHT(cgroep,1)

use verkoop
copy to newverkoop structure extended

use newverkoop
replace field_name with cnaam
replace field_type with cchar
replace field_dec with VAL(cdecim)
replace field_len with VAL(clenght)

create another from newverkoop

use another
append from verkoop

delete file verkoop.dbf
use another
copy to verkoop

endif

I simply rename the original file, then create a new one ( perhaps with many modifications ) using the original name, then append from the old one.

I do NOT delete the renamed file in case something happens during the append which results in not all data being copied.

The method is safe and very fast.

With my application, I have a data files version number. My applcation checks to see if a new version number was issued, and then runs a built in routine which will see what files need to be updated ( either because the field count changed, or the file is new ), and takes care of this.. It also rebuilds the indexes. It's fast, automated, and pretty transparent to the user.

I also use Tim's method. but I do not rename original file name at first
1. I create the new file with temp filename.
2. I append records to new file from original file.
3. If any error is not occured, delete the original file, and rename the tempfile to original file.

The reason I don't delete the old file is it often takes the client awhile to realize not all of the data is present. By having the old file I can append in the missing data quickly.
