Re: Create DBF

Darren/Ginny
Thank you both for your responses. The issue I have is I am replacing an
existing application(DOS hand held) with a new device(WINCE). This
application takes up data and when finished, sends it off to a server. This
server is running an application that will consume these data files. I do not
have access to the code for this server app. The files that this app consumes
are DBF format. So , my only option that I can see to continue using this
process without new user interaction, it to create the DBF on the hand held
and push it to the server ready to be processed.

regards,
Bill
