SUMMARY
The dBASE APPEND FROM ... NOVERIFY clause is ignored in FoxPro.

NOTE: The documentation for FoxPro does not mention that this clause is ignored.

MORE INFORMATION
The dBASE NOVERIFY clause, available only when APPENDing System Data Format (SDF) files, suppresses type checking.

Steps to Reproduce Behavior
NOTE: These steps assume that drive C contains a main FoxPro directory called FPW26 and an empty directory called TEST.

Type the following commands in the Command window:

USE C:\FPW26\TUTORIAL\CUSTOMER.DBF COPY TO c:\test\test.dbf COPY TO c:\test\sdf.txt TYPE SDF USE c:\test\test.dbf APPEND FROM c:\test\sdf.txt TYPE SDF NOVERIFY Note that the APPEND line ignores the NOVERIFY clause.
