>What is the best way to integrate existing FoxPro 2.x tables with a VFP application using a Database Container? Should I keep the tables as free tables and exclude them from the DC or create views to be included in the DC? What are the pros and cons? The 2.x tables are accessed by existing 2.x applications so they can't be converted.

Bryan,
Leave the 2.x tables as free tables (not in the DBC). In the dbc add a local view for each of the 2.x tables and get the records from the 2.x dbf's. Make the views updateable on all fields and you can also put your rules on the view fields.
