>>SET COLLATE TO RUSSIAN,

A chto dajot CPDBF()? Dolzhno byt' 1251 chtoby pozvoljal Set Collate to "Russian". Nachinaya s versii VFP3 vvedena zavisimost' pozvolyaemoi Collate sekvencii ot kodnoi storoni; tak ne mozhno pol'zovatsya s "general" esli cpdbf() vozvraschaet 1251 ili 1250, i naoborot, ne mozhno "Czech" esli 1251 ili 1252. Poprobuy

Do (home()+"\tools\cpzero\cpzero") with "takaya", 1251

i potom poprobuy indeksovat' po russki. U menya bili takie zhe problemi i ya pogovoril s Stivenom Blekom i okazalos' chto takaya zavisimost' na suschestve est'.
