We are using Enable 2.15 (we have not tried it with 3.0 or 4.0) - It
seems odd that Enable is looking for it - but if we add it with a
binary editor, the problems loading the database go away - DBASE3
does not seem to have a problem with the files, only Enable (or
should I say Disable ;-)



(of course I'm not an enable fan - I would like to see us change to
REAL  programs like dbase3, lotus, etc. instead of an integrated
packege, but I'm just the end user that has to use the program, not 
the one who buys it)
