When I open dbf in command window i
(OP)
When I open dbf in command window it opens in shared mode. When I create a table, I can add fields, but I can't add comments and input conditions. Im tried SET EXCLUSIVE. After i restarted my computer, it did work. It seems the issue is resolved, but I don't want to restart the computer every time in this situation))
What to do to add comments and another? Thx

If you open a table from the project manager or the database designer, it will always open exclusively.

The reason for this is to maintain backward compatibly with earlier versions FoxPro. If you want to take advantage of those properties, you will have to place the table in a DBC.
That said, some developers say that they rarely use those properties. The only ones that I regularly use are Autoincrement and Field comment. But DBC-bound tables also support long field names, which for me is often the deciding factor.

I made a small mistake in my previous post. Autoincrement settings (Next Table and Step) are in fact available for free tables - but only if the table actually contains a field of type Integer (Autoincrement). None of the other properties are available.
