Hi,
Can anybody help me please?
We have an access application here that reads data from Foxpro 2.6 tables. It worked fine in Access97 but we now have a requirement to migrate it to Access 2002 and Access2002 doesn't seem to be able to read the data from the tables.

The import is done automatically within the application, there's no user interaction.

The access application selects fields from Foxpro tables using an sql statement.

openrecordset(Select table.field, table.field2 from)

Part of the sql statement specifies the path to the data
\\folder\folder\folder'[Fox Pro 2.6;]

The Fox Pro 2.6 part tells access which ISAM to use to read the data.

The Fox Pro 2.6 ISAM is no longer supported under Access2002.

Phil.
