Hi!

Your problem sounds like fault bytes in the DBF file. In this case the BROWSE command isn't very helpful, because there ther is a lot of internal stuff within the BROWSE.

It may be helpful, to try the following:

USE MyFile
LIST TO FILE c:\temp\test.txt

Now you a text file version of the database (except the memo fields) and you can check visually the integrity of the data.

Other ideas:
- Use COPY TO to create a copy and then compare the two tables programmatically.
- Use SCATTER command for each record and compare the memo variables with the fields.

Good luck from Berlin/Germany!
