Hi Steve,

Have you had a play with SQL Server's Data Transformation Services? I haven't tried it with tables that big, but the Export wizard from the SQL Server enterprise manager may just provide the functionality you need.

Cheers,

Andrew

>I deal with a proprietary software program that can use dbf files greater than 2GBs. I have been using VFP to retrieve data from SQL Server to produce dbfs for this software to use. The software can merge smaller dbfs into larger ones, but this is inconvenient. Does anyone know of a way to get data from SQL Server into a dbf that won't limit the size of the dbf to 2GBs. Thanks.


If we were to introduce Visual FoxBase+, would we be able to work from the dotNet Prompt?
