Re: Foxpro Data Base


if the file->get external data import using dBaseIII does not work, then
using the FoxPro odbc driver should work

(otherwise, how could FoxPro read this stuff???).

Do you know if there is a way to solve this as I
need all the Fields in the Access Data Base.
Thanks again for your valuable time


You should work on using the odbc driver. I would get the odbc FoxPro driver
working and test EXPORT a simple access table out as FoxPro file, and then
test importing that table.

In other words, you need to get the FoxPro driver working so you can import
and work with a FoxPro tables. This is at the very least a starting point.

So, can you EXPORT a simple ms-access table to a FoxPro table using the odbc
driver?
