Hi Greg.

>How do I import data from a Btrieve file into vfp 6.0 dbf ?

VFP doesn't support importing directly from Btrieve, but there are several options:

- If the application maintaining the Btrieve data has an export function, use that to create a file in a format VFP can read.

- You can get a Btrieve ODBC driver from Pervasive (the manufacturer of Btrieve) and then create a remote view or use SQL passthrough commands in VFP to get at the Btrieve data.

- You can purchase a third-party library, such as DBFtrieve, which allows VFP to access Btrieve data programmatically.
