Have you had any more luck with Cheetah blueb?

I can create tables and indexes, add records and navigate through the records I have added but the moment I try to update an existing record using XDBPUTRECORD or XDBPUTRECORD_Z my application crashes.

If I change the second parameter of XDBPUTRECORD_Z to a string (even though the help file says it should be a long) it no longer crashes but it insert a new record rather than updating the existing one???

I got as far as creating tables, but ran into trouble creating indexes. Then I got sidetracked by work (plus my wife left for the Hawaiian Ironman competion), so I had to leave it. I you want you can email me at: blueb@shaw.ca and we'll compare notes.

Cheatah is a very fast dBase compatible tool, and I'd like to get it working with Pure. Combined with Edwin's PBDev, it would very quick to create small, fast database applications.

Your wife is a man?

Did you give the index the same name as the table?
It doesn't like that. If that's what you did try giving the index a different name and see if it works.

HaHa! Good one. :lol:
Technically, they call them 'Iron Maidens'. She's happy to have finished it. It was a hot and windy day. It took her 13 hours to swim 4km, bicycle 180 km, and run 42 km. (Which is about 1 1/2 hours longer than her best time under good conditions)

As far a Cheetah... I don't remember, if I named the index the same as the dbf. I'll take a look this weekend. I just updated out invoicing system at work, and that's been taking up my time.

Regards,

Congrats to your wife. That is pretty hard to qualify for. (At least for the men, and I assume the ladies too).
