I have a .PRG I wrote based on source code listing from article "So It's Not a Database File!" in FoxPro Advisor November, 1993 by Jim Booth (Thanks Jim...I've used it quite a few times over the years). It corrects the problem of the record count in the DBF header not matching the true record count in 2.x DBFs. I'll email it to you if you wish.
