Summary: inquiry for REFLEX files in order to make join function


 I just got a copy of Borlands REFLEX and I am quite impressed.  For
 The price, one would have a hard time beating it.  The problem I have
 is that it defines a data base as being only a single file.  What I would
 like to do is to write a JOIN function that would allow me to work with
 smaller data files and join the parts I need for some print out.  
  
  Has anyone figured out the format of the data base files produced by 
  Reflex?  Any help would be appreciated.  I have called Borland and they
  said that such information is not passed around.

  PS.  The package works best with a mouse (needs to be microsoft mouse
       compatible).  Without the mouse, it is much slower to use and isn't
       nearly as much fun.
