Dear Bahman,

DBF files can be recovered if you have backed up the original DBF files before getting corrupted. But the situation becomes difficult when there is back up copy of DBF files. Anyways, the main thing is to resolve this problem. You need a reliable solution to repair these files.

There was also Stonefield Database Toolkit for Foxpro. Not sure whether
it could deal with Clipper DBFs....

Follow the steps to recover DBF Files

1. Open the dBase command line from the Windows Start menu.

2. Log into the local dBase software with your username and password.

3. Click on the dBase command line section of the window that is open.

4. Type "dbf /recover yourDbaseFile.dbf" into the command line, where "yourDbaseFile.dbf" is the name of the dBase file whose tables are corrupted.

Press "Enter." dBase takes some time (ranging from a few minutes to a few hours, depending on the size of the database) to analyze and repair the file and its contents. You will be alerted once the process is finished.

If you are unable to recover the corrupted dbf files with the above method then you can try DBF Recovery Software.
