    Doesn't have the DAO control a connection string builder? (if you drop the ADO recordset control on a form, you can build a connection string with that, copy it to your source and ready (at least that's the way i build my connectionstring...)

    Hi,danab!

    I believe there is a sample code you are looking for.

    Maybe you could just import your foxpro DB into an Access table. Just an idea.

    I'm not sure about DAO, but I know that in my A-Level coursework I used a dBASE database in VB. Foxpro's more or less the same, isn't it? I think I remember it being on the list of database types you could connect straight to a data control.
