Yes there is --- use ODBC (Open Database Connectivity)- the necessary ODBC connection files should have been installed, and can subsequently be installed, from either your VB setup or from your VFP setup processes or if whether you are in w95 or winnt - go to COntrol Panel and select ODBC driver setup there. Then from inside VB you can use the properties/methods tools to make your connections. If you have Excel - you can do this even easier by using the built in (external Data" tools called "PivotTable". See your help files in VB or Excel for this detail. HTH. /psb.
