>not sure if Guineu is up to your needs already, but with Guineu you can turn FoxPro functions into functions that can be called from stored procedures. The FoxPro code can access DBF files, use SEEK, SCAN, REPLACE, etc. There are some issues with that approach that you would need to check with your administrator. Because Guineu would access DBF files in the context of the SQL server, it must be granted a number of permissions that administrator might not give you.

This looks interesting. If they make at a 64-bit interpreter, it could be really interesting <g>

http://www32.brinkster.com/srisamp/sqlArticles/article_31.htm for an introduction.
That might work with and EXE COM object, as it appears the problem is with 32-bit DLLs. The EXE's run in the WOW64 environment, and as that would be native FOX, not a DLL, it should work. I'll have to give it a try and see how it goes.
