For some reasons I have to make an old 2.6 FoxPro DOS application to import in run-time some data from a VFP 6 table. Unfortunately, I can't do it inversely - from VFP, what isn't a big deal and it can not be even stored in VFP application as a FoxPro 2 table.

So, my idea is to write a small VFP application which would only do something like this:
...
use Table_VFP6
copy to Table_FP2 type fox2x
...

Then, building this program to an EXE and running it from my FoxPro 2.6 application just before uisng the new Table_FP2 from Dos. I'm not sure is this the only way or is there some better trick.

Thank's, Zlatko.
