Thanks dbMark. My mistake included: set telephon to telephon.ndx instead of: set index to telephon.ndx and that would never have worked. I appreciate your help.

Thanks MUCH tviman. I used your format: .use telephon index telephon.ndx And then added .Reindex (Suggested the last time I had trouble by MiggyD) and HAPPY DAY!

I transferred my dbase files from a previous computer running Win98 to a new computer running WinXP. But in moving the desktop icon for dbase to the task bar in WinXP, I did something that prevents me from retrieving newly added items. I have 2 config.db files, the first in c:\files\db is...

I write this post to again thank 1oldfoxman and MiggyD for their valuable help. My dBase3 works better than ever! aa18ron

Anne Troy Thanks for responding. It's Schedule+ 7.5. AA18ron ipadr@yahoo.com

If Schedule+ is not part of MS Office, pls. advise. Problem: After reinstalling Win98, my Schedule will not open. I get the Schedule "cover page"with the logo but the program does not launch but freezes instead. I can "see" the program in Windows Explorer and I can see my .cal files. but...

Dennis : Thanks again will try your suggestions.

Thanks to 1old foxman. I located the missing dbf files and my dBase 3 plus is substantially restored but there are some records that are not retrieved when I search. Any thoughts?

I thank 1oldfoxman and MiggyD for responding. Using MiggyD's Notepad method for finding the contents of config.db, here is what I saw: default=c: path=\files\db color=bg/ ,w/r,gr command=do dba dba is the data base "shell" that was written for me many years ago (1987?. It stands for Data...

I thank 1oldfoxman and dbmark for responding but I have to confess I am not a programmer and have been using dBase III plus with a shell that opens after the license page is accepted. The shell permits me to bypass the acutal dBase commands and search for a record and goto a record number by...

I have been using Dbase for 8 years and found it robust but I had to reinstall Win98 which seems to have lost all of my dBase, Outlook Express and Schedule 7.5. BUT I had always copied my hard drive to an auxiliary hard drive - including dBase. I can "see" my dbase files on my auxiliary drive...
