PRB: Error: Index Tag Not Found After DELETE TAG ALL |
'
ID: Q130242
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Visual FoxPro for Windows, version 3.0
SYMPTOMS
After issuing the DELETE TAG ALL command, you receive this error:
Index Tag Not Found.
CAUSE
The error occurs because SET COMPATIBLE is set to DB4. dBASE does not support the ALL clause on the DELETE TAG command. The ALL clause on the DELETE TAG command is unique to FoxPro.
WORKAROUND
To work around this issue, SET COMPATIBLE to OFF, or explicitly identify the tag name with the DELETE TAG command. For example, issue one of the following commands:
SET COMPATIBLE OFF
-or-
DELETE TAG tagname
STATUS
This behavior is by design.
MORE INFORMATION
Steps to Reproduce Behavior
Create a Visual FoxPro table:
CREATE TABLE mytab (cField1 C(20))
Index on cField1:
INDEX ON cField1 TAG cField1
Set Compatible to dBASE:
SET COMPATIBLE TO DB4
Attempt to delete all tags:
DELETE TAG ALL
The error message "Index Tag Not Found." is now displayed.
