>I am researching the ability of FoxPro (FPW 2.6a) to access Btrieve files. I have seen advertisements for a product called DBFtrieve that appears to provide what I am looking for. The FPW process will need to add records to the Btrieve files as well as extract data for reporting purposes. If anyone has had experience with accessing Btrieve files I would be interested in hearing what problems you have had, if any, and what the performance of FPW is going against these files.


Upgrade to version 3.0 because it got ODBC - support (for Btrive files).
I have used this for reading Btrive files from a Novell 3.12/Btrive server. It's easy to set up and use, and performs Ok ( for my use). You just create a view, and then you can use this view like any other view (or table).
