Hi all.
i have no experience in dbase but have a general idea how it works.
I have a databse file with my store inventory.
i need to replace numbers in "price" field.
example . i have some items priced at 1.99 i need to replace it with 2.49 throughout the database. I also want to change department for some item.
field name for department is "DEP"
example. department xx should be replace with yy.
Thanks

its been a long time since I messed around with dbase...

But here goes.... Plus make a copy of your dbase files BEFORE changing them in case you screw it up. You can start over.

Open dbase...

USE yourdatabase exclusive
replace all price with 2.49 for price = 1.99
close all

USE yourdatabase exclusive
replace all department with "XXX" for department = "DEP"
close all

Just make sure you are replacing fields with the same type of data... ie decimal fields = just numbers -- string fields must use quotes.

Maybe someone else can chime in if my dbase memory has forsaken me.
