Hi Does anyone know of any applications that will... 1) Index text in DBF file structures 2) Offer function calles to perform various boolean, fuzzy/proximity searches returning recno's. 3) Have some incremental indexing scheme intact so the text indexes are maintained current, ideally independent of the program code which modifies these files. Clues? Kent Cearley University of Colorado

"Friendly Finder" will do much of this. I fooled with it about a year ago, but have not used it extensively. (As an unusual aside, the algorithms used in it are part of a doctoral thesis that can be obtained through the University of California.) Tom Rombouts Torrance 'Tater tomr@ashtate.A-T.com
