Paul,

I created a database called TRANSACTIONS.DBF with an index of
TRANSACTIONS.CDX using the DBServer Editor. Using the DBF Utility in
VOPP the index opens automatically as expected.

Then I used the DBF Utility to create a function for building the
database and index file. In the resultant files the index file does not
open automatically.

Stephen Quinn spotted that the index file name was not the same as the
DBF. It is the same as Index File name displayed in the utility, just
eight characters.

In the next build or update to VOPP could you change the code so that
the full Index Name is shown in the ListView and in the code generation
utility?

Thanks and keep up the good work.

Kevin

Kevin,

I'll take a look at it.

BTW, some parts of the code generation can be controlled by customising
VOPP's template, CreateDBF.tpl. But I'll look at including the full name for
an updated build.

Thanks Paul.

I had a look at the CreateDBF.tpl file and cannot see any way to modify
the way the file name is obtained for the index. It uses a placeholder
(%CreateOrder%) for the order creation so I cannot see how it creates
the index. It may be taking the name from the index ListView which only
shows eight characters.

Paul,

A quick check, opening a DB and copying the function to the clipboard,
looks like the full name is used for the index name alright.

Thanks.

Kevin
