Help topic "Table File Structure (.dbc, .dbf, .frx, .lbx, .mnx, .pjx, .scx, .vcx)" contains incorrect values of the Byte 0
Current help:
File type: 0x01
FoxBASE: 0x02
FoxBASE+/Dbase III plus, no memo: 0x2F
Visual FoxPro: 0x30
Visual FoxPro, autoincrement enabled: 0x31
Visual FoxPro, Varchar, Varbinary, or Blob-enabled: 0x42
dBASE IV SQL table files, no memo: 0x62
dBASE IV SQL system files, no memo: 0x82
FoxBASE+/dBASE III PLUS, with memo: 0x8A
dBASE IV with memo: 0xCA
dBASE IV SQL table files, with memo: 0xF4
FoxPro 2.x (or earlier) with memo: 0xFA
Correct values:
File type:
0x02 FoxBASE/dBase II
0x03 FoxBASE+/FoxPro/dBase III PLUS/dBase IV, no memo
0x30 Visual FoxPro
0x31 Visual FoxPro, autoincrement enabled
0x32 Visual FoxPro, Varchar, Varbinary, or Blob-enabled
0x43 dBASE IV SQL table files, no memo
0x63 dBASE IV SQL system files, no memo
0x83 FoxBASE+/dBASE III PLUS, with memo
0x8B dBASE IV with memo
0xCB dBASE IV SQL table files, with memo
0xF5 FoxPro 2.x (or earlier) with memo
0xFB FoxBASE
The last value is listed in VFP 5-8 help but I cannot confirm it.
The question is if to mention newer dBase versions but they are not compatible to VFP. My suggestion is No.
I would also recommend to add SYS(2029) function to the See also part of this topic.
