Hi List, Silly question and only partially related to MapInfo, it's one of those non-mapinfo questions that arises out of using mapinfo and vb...
Anyone know how to search a foxpro dbase in vb using the recordset object? I have used it on access with no hassles, but I keep getting an invalid index error when I try to search for text within a field within a foxpro dbase?? I don't wanna have to convert my dbase into access, and the net seems to be a complete blank as does VB manuals the vb help... simply put, this is the offending code, and it gets unhappy with the "DESCRIPT" column specified as the index. I've tried using a unique field for the index, but no joy... dtaJobs.Recordset.Index = "DESCRIPT" dtaJobs.Recordset.Seek "=", SearchValue If dtaJobs.Recordset.NoMatch Then MsgBox ("No Matches using current search criteria") End If sorry for the slightly off-topic thanx Ben __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
