Hi,
I have some corrupted tables, I tried to run the kdbchk utility but it looks like not fixing the errors...
How could I fix these tables without rebuilding them...
AND do u have any reason why the tables are getting corrupted???

Thanks..

If you are still getting KDBF errors when accessing a table after running kdbfchk with the -o option and copying the file back in place, it is possible an index is corrupt, not the table. Drop and re-make all indexes on the table.

KDBF corruption issues can be caused by other software accessing Texis files (eg. writing), or copying/moving them while still in use, or FTPing them in non-binary (eg. ASCII) mode.
