How to Pack Paradox tables in run-time

Is it possible to pack paradox tables in run -time ? If so, how ?

Thanks,
Vitor Hugo Silva

  Use dbiDoRestructure...   (if you then press F1, you get the BDE help
file.  In the help file are all the possible uses of dbiDoResturcture
inlcuding packing a paradox table....)

Re:How to Pack Paradox tables in run-time


Yes, it's possible, Vitor, but you generally have no reason to do it.
Paradox tables automatically reclaim and recycle space used by deleted
records (which "really are deleted!") and packing needs only be done
very infrequently -- such as when you've deleted a whole lot of records
scattered throughout the file.
