Yep, I thought about it and created an empty database first. But still have this problem. In couple of fields first 10 characters are not unique, and this seems to be a problem. I can open Access, import this file, then change field names (get rid of first portion) and then I can export this file into VFP3.0 format, but this require one additional step, which I'd like to avoid.
Anyway, I think it confirms the bug in VFP Import Wizard.
If it's not broken, fix it until it is.
