Access 2003 and Foxpro

[taylo40]

Hello,

Just have a question about access 2003 and Foxpro.

I have been asked to import some tables into Access 2003 to bring up to date. However, the original tables are in DOS Foxpro.

Is it possible to import these tables ?

Regards,


Jamie

Should post in Microsoft: Access Other topics.

"I have been asked to import". Well, what happened? Did you try? You should try things first.
Did you try and download the FoxPro files to .txt then import those to Access?

Post in Microsoft: Access Other topics but take some initiative before you do.

Apologies if I should have posted elsewhere.

When I try to import, I select File types and Foxpro does not appear

Which version of Foxpro is it? I used to have to do a similar thing with a very old version and found that the best method was to simply open the native Foxpro files in Excel (and the dbf's just opened straight away) and then save as XLS and import them that way.

Let us know if that works for you.
