is it possible to change the width of and existing numeric-dBasefield from 5
to 20 ??
(  !! without creating the table new!!)

I look at tBatchMove...
and attempted FieldDefs->AddFieldDef()

....but nothing!


Any idea ?

Thanks!!!

YES, I found the trick!!!!!!!!!!!

==>
The easiest way is to use the SQL ALTER TABLE statement as described in the
Local SQL help file in your BDE directory. The other way is to use the BDE
API function DbiDoRestructure. See the examples at
www.borland.com/devsupport/bde/bdeapiex.
