>>Hi
>>I have a directory with dbase 3 tables and indexes. I am trying to connect to it from a vfp9 application, but with no success. When i use the dbase 3 odbc connector, it asks for the directory where the data resides. How do i then run calls to this data through the connector? Can it open the tables in share mode? Add new records ( updating old db3 indexes )?

>>TIA

It sure does, but it will not update the old ndx indexes when adding records...

Why do programs stop working correctly as soon as you leave the Fox?
