Description

The PCFILTER command allows compatibility with dBASE filter conditions.

When PCFILTER is ON, records that are outside the filter condition can be accessed and updated in the same way as in dBASE. When PCFILTER is set OFF, records that are outside the filter condition are never accessible. This command has been added to aid in the porting of applications that use this feature in dBASE. The default for PCFILTER is OFF.

Example

set pcfilter on
goto 23         && record outside of filter
replace fld_name with "new value"
