Par2: Importing C5 TXD into C4
1998-12-23 -- Eric Jacobowitz
 
I found a way to open a .C5 dct in C4 and Cw2 Here is the secret . . . Open the .dct file in C5. Export the .dct to a .txd file. Then you need to edit the .txd file slightly, and then you can import the .txd into an earlier version of Clarion. Sample of .txd from C5 [DICTIONARY] VERSION '1.0' CREATED '13 MAY 1998' '11:18:11AM' MODIFIED '21 DEC 1998' ' 4:45:12PM' [FILES] NAME FILE,DRIVER('Clarion'),RECLAIM,PRE(NAM),CREATE,THREAD !!> IDENT(1),USAGE(File) num_key KEY(NAM:NUM),NOCASE,OPT,PRIMARY !!> IDENT(1),AUTO hotel_key KEY(NAM:hotel,NAM:LAST),DUP,NOCASE,OPT !!> IDENT(125) car_key KEY(NAM:car,NAM:LAST),DUP,NOCASE,OPT !!> IDENT(126) All you need to do is for EACH file listed in the .txd, delete the ",USAGE(File)" which is listed under the filename. NAME FILE,DRIVER('Clarion'),RECLAIM,PRE(NAM),CREATE,THREAD !!> IDENT(1),USAGE(File) Once you go through the .txd and delete ",USAGE(File)" you can then IMPORT the .txd into an earlier version of CW.
