Help with create operation

[delphidestructor]

I am writing a small utility to create (op. 14) Btrieve data files. I am having a problem in the key specifications with the key position. I keep getting a return code of 27 (invalid key position). I can create files with no keys defined but when I send in a key spec of a simple 4-byte key in position 1 I get a return code of 27. Any value entered for this returns the same. Am I overlooking something in the key flag value, or possibly something else? Mike

Rookie mistake. Overlooked a pointer value. Now can anyone offer any help with segmented keys? Mike

What kind of problems are you having with segmented keys? Also, what language are you using? If I remember correctly, to create a segmented key, you just add the SEG flag to the key flag for all but the last segment. So if you have three segments, it would be on the first and second but not the third segment.
