Hi

Can anyone help me with this?

I am using the BDE to read some data stored in .db files. Every thing is
fine except that the address part of some records are stored in a .DAT file.
I can't find any way to read this data.  I can get an address index from the
.db file but I have no idea how to use this to retrieve the address text
from the dat file.

Any ideas?


Thanks

Gary B
