I have modified the GENDBC utility to allow the recreation of a DBC object or objects. I found the version that came with VFP to be unable to handle all but the simplest of DBC's. If you have a rather substantial DBC, the code generated by the original version of GENDBC all goes into one huge prg. The resulting program can easily exceed the max prg size allowed. I modified it to save the DBC information into a table...one object at a time.

With the new GENDBC I can now use it to make a faithful backup of my DBC's and, if necessary, re-create either the entire DBC or any DBC object.

If anyone is interested in the "new and improved" version of GENDBC I will post it to the forum archives.
