Re: DBase IV files



There is a flag in the header of the dbf file that indicates the
existence of a corresponding memo file with the same name and a .dbt
extension. So, when you open a dbf file, the memo file should be
opened automatically.
If you have a copy of dbase iv, you could test the integrity of your
files with it. Maybe there is a corruption.

HTH.
