VFP is like a box of chocolates, that method is something I didn't know at all, thanks Cindy.

>>It has bugged me for a long time that Excel does not offer the possibility to open VFP files directly. It does read dBase files, but to do that you must copy tables TYPE FOX2X.

...Y soy feliz, bien feliz, asi lo grito;
Mira, que el mundo sepa, que se sepa:
Soy feliz....                       

...And I'm happy, quite happy, so do I yell it;
Look, so the world knows it, so be known:
I'm happy...
