DDFMAKER.EXE - DDF Maintenance Utility
--------------------------------------
To add definitions for your own EXISTING Btrieve(t) databases, simply
follow the following steps.

Steps:

1.	Place all the files from the zip file into a common directory.
	Do Not Have Multiple copies of DDF around Hard Disk.

	C:\WINDOWS or F:\PUBLIC are as good as any.

2.	DDFMAKER is a dos application but can be safely executed from
	within windows.

	Commands are pretty much self-evident but here goes anyway.

	Choose an existing ddf entry or select create.

	Enter a unique Text describing the database (ie. Employees).

	Enter Location eg.  Drive\Path\filename.ext of your database.

	When editing ddf lines <Esc> takes you to command mode.

	Commands:-

	'U' Update DDF File

	'R' Remove Complete DDF File Entry. eg. header and lines.

	<Del> & <Ins> Remove & Insert DDF lines.

	'C' Allows modification to Header.

	'A' Amends line.

Tip of the day - Do Not Remove or modify the Control Records.
Eg. X$File, X$Field, X$Index as this will screw things right up !!!

You should now be able to run MS-ACCESS or whatever package needs DDF
files to access your Btrieve data.
