Hi,

I've been trying to import a foxpro database , which I already set up in the ODBC Manager and I still can't import the database. Here's the error I got:

Error Message
Record is too large. (Error 3047)
This error occurs when you enter data into the record — not when you define the table structure. Redefine the table by making some fields shorter, removing unneeded fields, or moving some fields to other tables.

Also, the thing about .dbf file is that I don't have access to modify the fields to make it smaller. Is there a way to import .dbf files without this error message? Thanks in advance.
