See AFIELDS() function. The 5th column in the array created stores Nullable setting for a column.

>Kind of a long story - but - I was having trouble getting a .dbf to be the data source of a mail merge. Word came back with "Word was unable to open the data source". When I looked closer at the table in the data session, I noticed that the date fields were marked as nullable. When I removed that check, then Word Mail Merged my table. None of the fields values were actually NULL, just the indicator that they could be NULL stopped the merge.

>So ... I want to put some generic code together that will read any .dbf, field by field, and determine if the value is null to set to EMPTY, and to set to NOT NULL. Can someone get me started?
