>I've got several Excel files I'd like to import. The first thing I've done is to convert them to Excel v4.0 format so VFP can handle them -- which I've done before. Now when I try it, I consistently get a VFP "Internal Consistency Error", which then closes VFP completely.

Hi Gerry,

If you're converting them anyway convert to CSV format. This way Excel preserves cell formating and VFP gets simple text file to import.

Just a WAG, maybe you have formulas in some cells that VFP cannot process?
