>Is there a way to convert ASCII files to EBCDIC format from within Visual Foxpro 5.0?
There is no way to built in function to do this in VFP, but here's a link to a file that may help in coding your own:
toadebc.zipThe file contains a collection of source code files to do the conversion in Pascal, C, and Assembler. It seems to me you should be able to create something similiar in VFP fairly easily.
