I maintain a set of .DBF tables created by Clipper apps and used by
FoxPro apps. The .DBF tables are 'images' of Informix tables on a Sun
server. There are roughly 100 .DBF files refreshed 5 days a week.
The largest of these files has 52 fields and 455 bytes per row. This
morning it had grown to 4.4 million rows, resulting in a filesize of
more than 2,000,000,000 bytes. The OS is W2K and NTFS.
The 4.4 million rows is well within 32-bit row count. Does Clipper have
any filesize limits at 2 GB or more? NTFS seems to sup****t very large
files.
If Clipper has a large file problem, is xHarbour any different or better
at it?
