Need to open Visual Fox Pro 8 tables in VB6

For better or for worse I have been building VB6 apps using DAO and Access 2000 databases. A client wants me to write a new application which will look at 2 Visual Fox Pro 8 tables. The client provided me with the tables (.dbf, .fpt & .cdx) but I can't get them open.

I tried linking the tables to an Access database & opening directly in VB6 but am not having any luck.

Any tips or direction would be greatly appreciated.
