Good Day All, I never thought I would see the day, but, I have a DBase file, I suspect dbIv, with just over 3.5 million records. Now that I am Paradox convert, I tried to move these records into a Paradox table. The DBDsktop reported that a table was full, and only copied 570 000 records. The rest were just dropped. There is no way I can believe that this is a limit of Pdx. That being said, can any one tell me what the max size of a Pdx 7 table is? Thanks, Nick Back to top Antonio Felix Guest Posted: Wed Mar 23, 2005 4:53 pm    Post subject: Re: What are the maximum sizes of tables and fields ...

Thanks, Nick Hi Again, Also look at http://www.bdesupport.com/faq.htm and you'll find a delphi sample on how to use DbiDoRestructure to change the block size at run time.

Take it easy, Nick Nick, Take a look at Interbase, you won't regret it. Using the IBX Components and, if you need a free engine, the Open Source version of Interbase (6.0.1.6) will give you a fine DBMS System.
