OLEDB Newbie - how to ignore deleted rows?



Hi,

I am importing data from FoxPro 8 tables into SQL Server 2005, using the Microsoft OLEDB driver for Visual FoxPro 8. The development environment is VS2005, but that does not matter, it is the OLEDB component behaviour I need to understand.

My question is this:
Can I set it to ignore deleted rows when I ask the component to return a whole table? If I use a SQL Statement like SELECT * FROM tblFoxData then I get the correct rows. If I connect using the table name in the component, then I get the deleted rows as well, with no way then of ignoring them.
I would prefer to use the non-SQL route, as tests are showing it is faster, and my tables are >5 million rows each.


Sorry to trouble you all, but having scanned the help, and MSDN and googled everywhere I still can't find the answer to this one.

Thanks in advance,

Richard R.
