I'm sorry I can't offer much help as to your DBT file problems.  Since the
DBF and DBT are separate files linked by pointers, system errors which
corrupt the pointers are naturally going to cause "a big mess."  From
your comments the exact nature of the fault was not clear, but it sounds
like you are able to recover your data.

We have used HiCards here at A-T with some success--at least, I don't 
remember any serious problems--but that was with Compaq 386s and ATs,
not PS/2s.  I think several people here use 386-to-the-Max.
