FoxPro need to create a new table with the rigth header and append all records in in order to put your old Fox DOS table on a DBC.

You can do it manually.
Create a table with the same structure in your DBC.
Append some records (1000?) to it and delete/pack the same records in DOS table. Repeat the process x times.

Be sure to make a backup before!

Have a good time! ;-)
