In order to access dbf records in a C program, I need to know the complete
structure of clipper .NTX files.  I am aware that the index files are
a form of B+ trees, but I need to know the complete structure, including root,
leaves, and how leaves are handled.  This information is apparently available
in "Clipper Programming Guide" by Rick Spence, but this book is not currently
on the market locally.  Any help with this problem would be greatly appreciated.
