PX_WRITE_PRIMARY_INDEX(3)				     Library Functions Manual					 PX_WRITE_PRIMARY_INDEX(3)

NAME

       PX_write_primary_index -- Write primary index into a file

SYNOPSIS

       #include <paradox.h>

       int PX_write_primary_index(pxdoc_t *pxdoc, pxdoc_t *pindexdoc)

DESCRIPTION

       Writes  the  primary index for the database passed in pxdoc. The primary index file must be created before as any Paradox file with PX_cre-
       ate_fp(3) or PX_create_file(3).

RETURN VALUE

       Returns 0 on success and -1 on failure.

BUGS

       This function will only create primary index files with not more than two levels. In general this will be sufficient to handle  many  thou-
       sand records.

PX_SET_BLOB_FILE(3)					     Library Functions Manual					       PX_SET_BLOB_FILE(3)

NAME

       PX_set_blob_file -- Associate blob file with database

SYNOPSIS

       #include <paradox.h>

       int PX_set_blob_file(pxdoc_t *pxdoc, const char *filename)

DESCRIPTION

       Opens  or  creates  the	given blob file and associates it with the Paradox database. This function must be called before accessing records
       whose blob data is stored in a .MB file. It must also be called after opening or creating the paradox database. If the blob  data  is  con-
       tained in the record itself or can be stored in the record, this function may not be called.

       This  function  must  be called after opening or creating the database file, because it uses the same file open mode. If you call it before
       PX_open_file(3) or PX_create_file(3)	       it will quit with an error.

RETURN VALUE

       Returns a value < 0 in case of an error, otherwise 0.

SEE ALSO
