Looking at Special Considerations
When you are dealing with different types of external files, various problems and issues arise. If you understand these stumbling blocks before they affect you, you will get a great head start in dealing with them.dBASE
The major concerns you will have when dealing with dBASE files are deleted records, indexes, data types, and memo fields. When you delete a record from a dBASE table, Access does not remove it from the table. Instead, Access marks it for deletion. You must pack the database (a process in a dBASE table that removes deleted rows) for the records to actually be removed from the table. If records are deleted from a dBASE table using an Access application, the records are not removed. Because you cannot pack a dBASE database from within an Access application, the records still remain in the table. In fact, they are not automatically filtered from the Access table. To filter deleted records so that they cannot be seen within the Access application, you must set the Deleted value in the \HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Jet\4.0\Engines\Xbase section of the Registry to 01 (True).Access can use the dBASE indexes to improve performance. After you link to a dBASE table and select an index, an .INF file is created. This file has the same name as your dBASE database with an .INF extension. It contains information about all the indexes being used.
