Re: LINK Btrieve files into Access

#1

With Btrieve 4.11 and no DDF's, the problem is insurmountable. See my
white paper at www.goldstarsoftware.com/press.asp on ODBC access for more
details.

Tia,

If you need to create DDF files for your btrieve files you can check
out btsearch at www.nssdd.com. It allows you to analyze the files and
build the ddf files. Once you build the ddf files it will also export
to dbase or ascii formats.

IHi Bill, what a coincidence !i just was reading that page before i
read your link !!
The application is TAS (I had never heard about it before this, im not
that old) and i think i cant do too much with btrieve, i ve got the
engine but i seems a little portion of it. If the application doenst
have the option to export data as csv, would it be possible to write a
piece of code to do it??

Thanks
