>Is Foxpro dos 2.6 and Foxpro dos 2.5 table structure identicle? Also, are 2.6 win/dos?

FoxPro 2.5 and 2.6, DOS and Windows, use the same table structures. If you have the 2.6 books, note that the books are EXACTLY THE SAME as the 2.5 books, (they even specify 2.5 everywhere they specify a version) except there's a little "What's New in 2.6" pamphlet included in the box. What's new doesn't include changes to Project, Screen, Report, etc. file layouts.

I assumed that's what you were concerned with. DBF file structure didn't change from FoxPro 1.02 (FoxBase even?) through FoxPro 2.6. Of course, additional index file structures appeared from version to version, with compact IDXs coming on the scene and then CDXs (compound compact indices), don't remember in which versions these appeared.

But 2.5 and 2.6, DOS and Windows, used all the same file structures.
