I am building a routine to get rid of table MEMO corruption.
The routine copies all "good" records to a new table. The new table is created with the same structure as the original table, as the following:
USE ORIG_FILE in 0
afields( aDbfStruct )
create TABLE TEMP_COPY from array aDbfStruct
Once the program copies all records, I need to rename the TEMP_COPY to ORIG_FILE. Would the following sequence be a correct:
1. Drop ORIG_FILE from the database
2. Erase ORIG_FILE
3. Rename TEMP_COPY to ORIG_FILE
4. Add new ORIG_FILE to the database
Or is there a more efficient and better method to accomplish this?
Thank you in advance for any suggestions.
