Kees,
The strange syntax in VO is for indexed assigns.
What is SELF:PKey in this context?

Robert

Ace32 is part of Advantage and the functions in there are all documented in the advantage documentation.
If PeStudio can list all calls than it should also be able to show you the parameters to these calls.
The advantage documentation should show you which parameters are strings.

Bruce,
- The X# compiler is a DotNet process. Just like the C# compiler it can also run on Linux
- Programs compiled with X# can also run on Linux. Either on Mono, or with .Net Core and .Net 5 or later.
So yes, it can be offered as language on Exercism.

Any updates on DBFBlob and DBFMemo support in the latest release ?

This should be included in the upcoming 2.20 build.

Frank,
Where does the Fieldspec come from that is used for the column?
Can you (for now) change the type by calling the SetType() method from the fieldspec like this:

Guys, I am sorry for this problem. We changed the fieldspec class because FoxPro tables support more datatypes than just CDLMN (for example also Integer (I), Currency (Y) and DateTime (T). And the VO documentation also does not list 'O' as acceptable value for FieldSpec:ValType We'll make sure it is...

DIck, Anyhow, it remains a mystery; interesting that nobody (including myself) does actually know how it works. I think I know how this works, but I did not look into your problem. Did you ever include an example (report + code running the report +data files)? To explain this I would have to run the...

Kees, I must confess that I still do not understand how this is supposed to work, how can a number (a DWORD in this case) become a structure? Yet the code above worked in VO. What would be the safest way to make it work in X#? A structure in VO (when declared with AS) is a pointer to a memory locati...

Alex, There is no built in way to do this. You would have to create a DataTable and its columns and add rows for each of the rows in the recordset. I would probably use GetRows() to get all rows in the RecordSet and then use the ItemArray property of the DataRow to set all field values in one assign...

Dick,
If the same table is used in different sections with different aliases, then the solution where you're setting it for each of the aliases is the expected solution.
