- FoxPro to DBASE/CLIPPER database conversion
-
- Documentation.
-
- I had occasion to need to convert a FoxPro database to a
- standard.dbf file and so Jamal Mazrui helped me understand the
- proper use of the Clipper version 5.2B code to do it. I then
- thought that it would be real nifty to just make the code into an
- exe file where folks could just type in the names of the files
- and let the program do the conversion. Hence "FP2DB.exe"!
-
- the only thing you need to remember when using this program
- is to be sure that you don't use the ".dbf" extensions when
- entering the file names since they are defaulted in the program.
- You can use a path and different drive to send your newly created
- database to. This is further detailed in the program and so I
- only mention it to let you know that you can get all the
- databases converted you like into a favored directory.
-
- That's it! It is free, no guarantees, but it worked for me
- and should work for you!
