set index to...

[yardenmo]

Hello,

Using: SET INDEX TO &cDbfName,

returns run time error: Open error stack calls: OrdListAdd(0)

I'm using dbf / cdx.

What should I change? (I'm using the same function for opening ordered dbf in my clipper / xBase++ applications)

Thanks,
Moshe Yarden

Moshe,

Try it this way:

SET INDEX TO ( CurDir() + "\" + cDbfName )

Antonio,

Thanks.

I have tried you suggestion, and many other different ways, with no success.

The USE do finds the file. The problem is just with SET INDEX.

Do you have any sample uses SET INDEX?

Moshe,

Are you testing it on the emulator or on the real device ?

Please review fwppc\samples\TestBrwS.prg

Antonio,

Thanks. It is working now.

I'm using it on the emulator. However, I think that the reason has to do with the the ... VIA "DBFCDX" .

I did try it with: DbUseArea( .T., "DBFCDX", cDbfName, @cAlias, .F., )

However I didn't call: REQUEST DBFCDX

Now it is ok.


Thanks again,
Moshe Yarden
