>>Well, I'm a student and trying to finish my traineeship. To do so I've got to work with Visual FoxPro 8.0. A colleague read something in the Visual FoxPro Advisor about using Dbase with Visual FoxPro, but he can't remember it anymore, so my question is: Is it possible to use Visual Foxpro in combination with Dbase for such things as "search table" and "browse"? And if so, can you give an example?
