hi folks,

does anybody know, where vfp obtains the field lengths of a table when importing from excel?

I think VFP uses the lenght of the INT(column) when importing from excel using the import command.

But, if you use the IMport wizard, you can choose the data type, and the name of the field and the length of each field in the page. Also, you can select which page to import.

Check out the import wizard. You can also integrate it in your own application.
