>>>The maximum size of a VFP table is 2 GB (a limitation that beats up Access' database limitation of 1 GB total MDB size). When a table is opened, the database manager in my framework compares the table against this limit and also determines if there is enough diskspace available to add an additional 100 records to the table. This allows the user to be alerted well in advance (hopefully) of any potential space issues.

>>>Question: does anyone know if the size limitation also applies to CDXs?

>>Search on VFP help for "system capacity", there is mention of the indexes.

>The only limitation I could see was on the bytes per key. Does this indicate that the size of the actual CDX is not an issue?
No single file can exceed 2GB.
