>Is there a way (a command or option) to USE a table and make VFP to ignore the fact that structural index file (table.cdx) does not exist? I know I can catch it with an TRY/CATCH error but my purpose is to open/use a table to check the structure of the table. And in some cases the structural index file is missing and I have to deal with it.

Only using TRY/CATCH and looking for the specific error. Alternatively you may try to change the table in HEX editor, which I would not recommend.
