>>>You can:

  • Keep the text files as separate files, and only maintain a reference (the filename) in a DBF field.
    >>>
  • Split the DBF file horizontally, for instance by years.
    >>>
  • Split the DBF file vertically, if you have more than one large field.
    >>>
  • Use a database server, like Oracle or SQL-Server, as back-end.

    >>I understand how you could easily split the file horizontally as long as there is something logical like years to use. So you would have to have a logical break to do this? Is there a way to have 2 files and have Foxpro use them like they are only 1? Also, how would you handle the verticle split? Common key between them?

    Thanks!

    BTW, is your sig quoted from Finnigan's Wake? I actually got about a third of the way through it before giving up. Always meant to go back and try again...
