I have 3 foxpro files: c.dbf, c.fpt and c.cdx.
I want to move them to Access: I can import the dbf file into Access
but the Access import dialog does not show either the fpt or cdx file
types. Question, I need the fpt file for the memos and the cdx to
link it to the dbf : how do I get these two files in Access?

Thanks,

Pat

Can you create an ODBC DSN to the FoxPro files? Then use Access to
point to the FoxPro DSN? Just guessing though.
