Upgrade BDE Tables 5.0 to 7.02006-09-29 05:58:34 AM off-topic9 Hi, Is there a simple way to upgrade several Paradox tables from version 5.0 to 7.0. I could do it manually, but it would take sometime because since I would need to recreate the secondary indexes and such. Thanks +Mines |

Since using a feature that requires version 7 is the only reason I can think of for upgrading this should be all that you need. 2) Go to info.borland.com/support/bde/utilities.html (IIRC). There is a utility there that will change a table's level. -- Bill Todd (TeamB) |

Re:Upgrade BDE Tables 5.0 to 7.0
I had just this problem recently when moving a set of files into the
profile (the path exceeded the 128 character length of Level 4/5). I wrote a little utility to do it. You select a folder and it upgrades any tables it finds to level 7. I used Reinhard Kalinke's "Px7Table" component, which has a "SetLevel" method. tblSource.Open; tblSource.SetLevel('7'); tblSource.Close; All I did was iterate through the folder's contents. ...
