To all,

having converted my Clipper (Summer '87) application using CDXDBE, 
everything seems to work fine. Except for the part where I have to print 
pricetickets with barcode on it. For this part I (temporarely) want to use 
the old Clipper application, but the CDX indexes are not compatible with 
Clipper'87.
Could I change CDXDBE to NTXDBE without the risc of incompatability between 
the Xbase and the Clipper application?


M.vr.gr.,
Gert

Yes, you just need to be sure all places that you open files you open
all the associated NTX files instead of the single CDX file. You might
want to do this in a conditional so you can switch between NTX/CDX in
the future simply.
