A client has a corrupted database. a file is showing 197,000 records but only about 10,000 are actually valid. The rest display as blank.
First I utilized DBF Doctor to do a repair but it only found about 30 bad records.
Then I used DBU to filter out only valid records, and tried to export them. I used the filter .NOT. EMPTY( fieldname ). However they must have something embedded in there because the filter doesn't work.
I used Advantage Architect to also try to filter out the blanks, but that doesn't eliminate them either.
Does anyone have suggestions for a really good DBF file repair tool ? Lots claim to be but I think they all do the same thing. Back in the DOS days we had a great one but it never transitioned to Windows ( or 32 bit ).
I appreciate your input.
