>I have an application written in VFP5 that I have 400 different agents using at their sites. I would like to create a utility to reindex the files better than I am currently giving them. Basically if the CDX file gets corrupt I would like to delete the CDX file and create a new one entirely. My original program I am using was pulled apart from a gendbc output. The problem is, I cannot recreate the entire tables because they have data that they need to keep.
>This may be plain enough for you experts but I unfortunately am not. Any help on creating a new cdx file on an existing table would be appreciated. I also keep a newfile for the next key generator so I suppose I should check for accuracy on that in this program as well. Correct?

There are some problems with just deleting the TAG. It also deletes any referential integrity that you set up. Save yourself lots of time and effort. Go buy Stonefield Data Tools, which does just what you want and much, much more.
