Declare Function sx_FieldType Lib "Apollo9.dll"
(ByVal cpFieldName As String)
As String
LONG FAR PASCAL sx_FieldType
(BYTEP cpFieldName);
Reports the type of the named field.
cpFieldName: The name of the field.
The field type is returned as a string.
Standard DBF types are C (character), I (Long Integer), N (numeric), M (memo), D (date), and L (logical). Extended types are P (picture) and B (blob), and V (VariField ™). The extended types P and B are variations of a memo field and are used for reporting purposes only. They are not valid types for use by sx_CreateField.
