I have Approach 9.5 and am trying to open .apr file.
I get this message. "Approach has caused an error in DBASE.DLL. Approach will now close."

I had a similar problem in July and you suggested several things. There are no .oyz files this time. I tried the backup. That didn't help. I copied the .dbf and .dbt files. I can get them open in File Manager and Internet Explorer. But, when I try to open it in Approach, the files are not in the folder.

Any suggestions? Thanks for your help.

Try opening each dbf directly in Approach and compressing it, discarding the new apr each time. Then see if you can open the problem apr.
