[DUG] Validating CDS files

[Alister Christie]

You could of course just try to load it

very roughly:
function IsCDSVaild(file : string) : boolean
var
   cds : TClientDataSet
begin
   result := true;
   cds := TClientDataSet.Create;
   try
     cds.LoadFromFile(file);
   except
     result := false;
   end
   cds.free;
end
