Hello Axten, Hmmm, I converted about 50 meg of .dbf , .dbx , .dbi , .ntx , .dbe , .dbk , .dbs , .dbt files into EDS database and didnt have a problem with those files. Where was the problem located? I would love to have a copy of your patch. Probably will save me some time in the future. I constantly am converting old DB III, IV files into EDS. I might want to stay with DB filespec if I ever have the time to write a descent DB database read/writer. Are you re-writing anymore of the code to be compatible with the DB structure?
