Hi Hilmar

I sent you an email with some sample code. It appears that you do not have to use all of the Data Access classes. You can open a table the same way you do in FoxPro and then work with it as necessary.

For example, I am now struggling to understand the data access classes, so totally alien to one accustomed to Visual FoxPro. It is my understanding that using a product that might be called Visual FoxPro dot net, clipper dot net, Vulcan dot net, xBASE dot net, or whatever, the same classes would be used (as compared with C# or VB.NET), be it for data access, or for other common tasks.
