- ======================= DOCUMENTATION FOR SALVDBF.EXE=========================
- SALVDBF was written because a lot of times, especially on a network, the DBF
- header is not updated in time. As a result when FOXPRO attempts to USE the file
- the error NOT A DATABASE FILE is returned. This utility salvages all possible
- records from the passed file. The salvaged file has the same name as the old one
- so please remember TO BACKUP your file, just in case. The indexes are also lost
- since there is no way for me to know which indexes were set. So the user has to
- reset the index file. This utility was written in C using the CODEBASE libraries
- and hence is much better that FIXDBF and anything else that is out there.

- DISCLAIMER: As always, the author disregards any knowledge of its creation's
- problems. (GO TO COVER MY BEHIND)
- Enjoy!!!
