    importing Dbase files


    When using the import external data wizard to import a dbase lll file into Access 2007 using the more/dbase options, I get the following message “search key not found in any record” I can access the file using Dbase and the index is not corrupt.
    Other Dbase lll files have been imported without any problems.
    All help is appreciated.

    Isn't the Dbaae III index in a separate table?

    Dave,
    If it is a one time operation then export the dBase table to a CSV file and then import the CSV text file instead.

Please reply to this thread with any new information or opinions.
