Hi,

I wrote several Access 2000 application, which share Clipper DBF-NTX tables-indexes with several Clipper 5.01 applications. As a main tool I used Codebase, which is pretty robust and fast.
Actually, CodeBase ( http://www.codebase.com/products/ ) comes with good Clipper ODBC driver and ADO provider. I used the ODBC driver. It works fine.

HTH,
