Create a dBase database at runtime

Answer:

The following procedure may be especially useful for temporary tables:

1   procedure MakeDataBase;
2   begin
3     with TTable.Create(nil) do
4     begin
5       DatabaseName := 'c:\temp'; (* alias *)
6       TableName := 'test.dbf';
7       TableType := ttDBase;
8       with FieldDefs do
9       begin
10        Add('F_NAME', ftString, 20, false);
11        Add('L_NAME', ftString, 30, false);
12      end;
13      CreateTable;
14      { create a calculated index }
15      with IndexDefs do
16      begin
17        Clear;
18        { don't forget ixExpression in calculated indexes! }
19        AddIndex('name', 'Upper(L_NAME)+Upper(F_NAME)', [ixExpression]);
20      end;
21    end;
22  end;
