What does it mean table names? Can the name of the table be different than the actual filename?


it is the objectName into the DBC.

Open table Designer, go to Table tab:
Name it is the DBC's objectname
Table file it is the dbf fileName


I probably asked that question before but how can we find out the whole filename of the given table without opening it?

? FULLNAME(DBGETPROP(tableObjectName, 'TABLE', 'Path'),DBC())

Though if I want to use LUPDATE() I would need to open that table. Or is there a way to also get last modification date without opening a table?


with
- ADIR()
or
- DIR TO tempFilename
or
- WinApi
