you can do sql executes to it with the sqlexec command.

I believe that there is a function called YEAR().  This should convert your 2 digit years to 4 digit years, and I have seen this extensively used with Fox for Dos Y2K issues.

There is a command called list struct. I have already used this command for this very purpose. There is a switch list table to file. LIST STRUCTURE TO FILE "c:\temp\myfile.TXT" Hope that helped.

Open GL Programming and Direct X programming are opular APIs for graphics programming. They both support 2d and 3d graphics, along with a host of rendering and surfacing features. <br> <br> Open GL is an excellent entry point to the MFC. If you can program with Open GL. I suggest a book...

Well, I suggest that you look into Stonefield database toolkit. Stonefield allows you to reindex, repair corrupt tables and update your databases without writing a program to do these functions. It allows you to go straight from database design to production without changing the code every...

Look into remote views for FoxPro. Therein lies your answer. Also these can be requied to show new table contents. Combining OBDC with remote views will allow you to integrate to almost any database.

also look into adding groups to reports. this is key. i believe it is rather set up in the group footer.

If you would like to Index your data more effectively, check into stonefield database kit. re-indexing via fox commands is not nearly as effective as stonefield database kit. not only does it index, it has a wide variety of safety features in it to protect your data against file corruption.
