hello to all data specialists,
I have to import some data from ADT,ADI,ADM files.
It seems to be the advantage proprietary dataformat.
Has anybody an idea how to import this in foxpro tables in an easy way?

thank you for any answer...

Well that's proprietary formats extending DBF,CDX,FPT so foxpro can't read them directly. But you can connect to the Advantage Database Server via ODBC and do your query into a foxpro cursor and save that as a DBF again.

in fact the question is why import it to dbf? Going to client/server with Advantage Database Server is a clever choice. You may also like access via the OLE DB Provider. It offers more commands than just SQL.

Bye, Olaf.
