Please help: higher table level needed

Hi,
when my program is startet after a fresh installation on the customer's
computer it generates the whole database this way:
Creating the tables: ttable.createtable
Creating the indexes: tquery.sql.add('CREATE INDEX ...

That works perfectly as long as there was no older bde installed on the pc.
If it was, the entry in BDE Configuration:
Configuration/Diver/Native/Paradox/Level is set to '4', not '7'. This makes
my program crash when I try to generate a unique, not primary index with the
message: Cannot Create Index: Higher Table Level Needed

What can I do?
Can I create my tables somehow with level 7?
Or can I test and change the configuration entry inside my application?

Thanks in advance by any help!

I found it out!
Just have to set ttable.tablelevel to 7 before creating it.

Thanks,

Andreas

Yes use the TableLevel property of the ttable to specify level 7 when you create
the table.
