>We have been using the Jet Databases engine (dao.dbengine.35) to access foxpro 2.6 files from ASP. I was recently told that the latest version of the database engine no longer supports accessing Foxpro databases.

>I have two problems. I would like to start using VFP tables and be able to read and write to them. I don't want to use ODBC if at all possible. Jet does not look like a vialbe solution for very long. How are you accessing VFP tables? Are you using ADO? Doesn't it require ODBC?

You can access VFP Tables without going through ODBC. I run Active FoxPro Pages on my IIS Server which allows me to write Fox Script directly manipulating FoxPro tables. I haven't worked with Rick Strahls product West Wind Connection (yet) so I can't comment on it, but I've heard good things about it as well. West Wind also has a visual product coming out called Visual WebBuilder that looks VERY promising for development work. If you want more information, let me know.
