I might be a bit late but the readme file that I have with CMRepair says:

DO cmrepair.app WITH 'c:\temp\baddata.dbf', .t.
Auto-repair mode. If number of the records written in the header of the table does not match size of the file, then auto-repairing is performed. This mode auto-repairs corrupted memo file also (from version 2004c). There is a limitation within 5 records of difference: not to "auto- loss" more then 5 records in this mode. Interface window is not shown in case nothing to repair or repair process is successful.
