Jill,
I interpret the help to mean than you can import those versions of foxPro tables directly, without ODBC (all of those tables are compatible w/each other, i believe). They wouldn't give specific product versions if they were relying on and ODBC driver--the ODBC is responsible for data translation in that case.
Did importing as dBaseIII file not work?
