dbase_create

(PHP 3, PHP 4 >= 4.0.0)

dbase_create -- Creates a dBase database

Description

int dbase_create ( string filename, array fields)

The fields parameter is an array of arrays, each array describing the format of one field in the database. Each field consists of a name, a character indicating the field type, a length, and a precision.

The types of fields available are:

L

Boolean. These do not have a length or precision.

M

Memo. (Note that these aren't supported by PHP.) These do not have a length or precision.

D

Date (stored as YYYYMMDD). These do not have a length or precision.

N

Number. These have both a length and a precision (the number of digits after the decimal point).

C

String.

If the database is successfully created, a dbase_identifier is returned, otherwise FALSE is returned.
