Hi,

I have exported some data from a program developed in Omnis into dBase format (this was the choice on their export utility). The files created by the export utility are of format .DBF/.DBT. When I try to open any of these tables in VFP 9 I get message "Duplicate field names". I tried to open these tables in dBase III but I get message "not a dBase database"

Any suggestions on how to open these files?
