Usually clipper tables can be open as foxpro tables. Discussion in thread #554602 may give you some additional information.


>I am trying to estimate the conversion of a project from CA-Clipper, Version 5.2b to Visual Foxpro. The previous programmer is not available for support. The existing tables are dbf's and the index files were created using a third party utility called Comix/Clipmore Version 2.0 that supposedly create compound index files like Foxpro.

>I cannot open any of the tables in VFP. I have tried versions of Foxpro back to FPW 2.6 with no luck. I cannot open tables even if no index tag was created for the table. I get the error message "Not a table/DBF". Any ideas how I can access these tables without purchasing all of the original components?
