Thanks for your 'field report!' I haven't used CodeBase myself, but a group I worked with implemented it successfully in a telephony application.

Because of the performance of the VFP approach to indexing, the authors adopted that as the native format for the product, although it also works with dBase, Clipper, etc. files in the xBase product group.
