    Would someone mind posting a brief example of accessing a FoxPro table within a VB program. I am very comfortable with SQL and Jet (.mdb) operations; I just need to see something that gives me the same access to a FoxPro table. Thanks.

    If you have the MSDN library that comes with Visual Studio 6.0 (enterprise), there is a guide entitled "The Microsoft Jet Database Engine Programmer's Guide". Chapter 8 discusses using jet to access "foreign" formats (like Foxpro)...

    Would you mind posting exactly how to reach this programming guide. I have the MSDN library installed, but cannot find the guide you are referring to. Thanks.

    Sorry about taking so long to get back....

    Running MSDN Library Visual Studio, under the contents Tab, open the Topic "Books". 5th Item down, from "Books" is what you want.
