The simplest thing to do is to alter the BDE's settings using the BDE
Administrator software. Exit dBASE if it's open. Run the BDE
Administrator. Click the "Configuration" tab. Click the "+" by
"Configuration" in the window under the tab. Click the "+" by "Drivers",
and again for "Native". Click on "DBASE".  On the right you will see
"LEVEL". Change it to 5. Press Ctrl+A to save all changes, and close the
BDE Administrator. Until or unless you change that level again, the
default for any new table will be level 5 on your computer.
