>Hi,
> I am trying to repair a corrupt dbf/memo file that contains critical data. The problem I am having is dbf records with cross linked memo block pointers, i.e. record 10000 points to memo block 100000 and record 20000 also points to memo block 100000, which record belongs to the memo block.

Do you have any non-corrupt backups? Even if they're relatively old, they might give you enough information to be able to resolve some or most of the cross links.
