You can use CPCONVERT() on the text columns to convert you Windows
characters to MS-DIOS 850 characters.
The COPY TO command has an AS <codepage> clause to convert an entire table
If your VFP table isn't properly marked with the 850 codepage, use
Tools\Cpzero\cpzero.prg to set the codepage mark.
You can set VFP to make 850 the default by setting CODEPAGE=850 in
Config.fpw. Put the configuration file in the startup folder of a your
compiled export/import applications's exe.
