sensalim Posted February 7, 2008 Posted February 7, 2008 First, I found thishttp://dbftools.com/download/cdbfapi.zipIt's free but demo version... (real one is $25 or more)Ok, so in it, I find this function.lst (a text file)... attached.All I want to do at the moment is:-Create (overwrite ok) a DBF file name is test.dbf in currect directory (@ScriptDir ok)-Create 5 columns and under each, create 1 (or 2) rows of data (any data, really)for testing purposes (for now).I only got this far$dll = DLLOpen("CDBFAPI.DLL") $sPath = @ScriptDir & "\test.dbf" $hDBF = DLLCall($dll, "ptr", "OpenBase", "str", $sPath) MsgBox(0, "hDBF", $hDBF[0]) DLLClose($dll)It seems to work but I don't know among those functions in the attached function.list,which one do I use to create/write columns...Can anyone help?Thank you!!!Function.List.txt
sensalim Posted February 8, 2008 Author Posted February 8, 2008 Here are some functions I find that may help me... // open database (open file, allocate memory, set options, // read header, fields etc) // Input: pointer to filename // Output: pointer to struct DBF or NULL if error struct DBF* OpenBase (char *filename); // close database (close file, release memory etc) // Input: pointer to DBF file // void CloseBase (struct DBF *d); // read fields and allocate memory // Input: pointer to DBF file // Output: TRUE if OK, FALSE if error // BOOL ReadFields (struct DBF *d); // insert string in Character field into read/write area // Input: pointer to DBF file, number of field, null-terminated string // void SetString (struct DBF *d, int n, char *s); // insert any value into read/write area // Input: pointer to DBF file, number of field, null-terminated string, double value // if type of field 'C', 'M', 'G', 'L' - null-terminated string is used, value is ignored // otherwise - value is used, null-terminated string is ignored // void SetValue (struct DBF *d, int i, char *s, double b);
