Description

The ADATABASES() function is used to place the name of the open database and its path into a dynamic array. The name of the array is specified in <array>. If the array does not exist, it is created. If the array is smaller or larger than required, it is resized. The array is two-dimensional with two columns. The first column contains the name of the open database, the second the path for that database.

The ADATABASES() function returns 1 if the open database name has been added to the array. If no databases are open or the array cannot be created, the ADATABASES() function returns 0.

NOTE: The ADATABASES() function operates on the open database, not tables.

Example

OPEN DATABASE hr EXCLUSIVE
nDatabases = adatabases(aDBCNames)
CLOSE DATABASES
