I have to work with a file .idx of foxpro in intranet. But the harbour is read-only file .cdx.

I find on Google is an information saying that CA-Clipper 5.2 can read

Is there any way to read file .idx from HMG?

Thank you for your help

HI:
la Aplicacion VFP puede tener su carpeta de bases y archivos idx/cdx
..\bases <--- directory .Dbf
..\idxcdx Foxpro <------ directory .Cdx VFP
..\cdx HMG <------ directory HMG
dicha aplicacion HMG tiene que apuntar su respectivo directorio index

Code: Select all

use BASES\TABLA001 VIA "DBFCDX" 
 index on STR(BNUMEROT,3) + STR(BCLAVE01,4) tag compania      to Indices\Tabla0001

Thank you!

I had a temporary solution, while not trying to read the file structure .idx or REQUEST ADS solution

I will cache all .dbf files with index .idx on your PC, and reindex again .cdx. MY PC is a server

Note: The file .idx size nearly 200M. Should be no actual real-time interaction for the index again .cdx on workstations
