I tried to export to DBC but had the same problem. I created a database without tables and I thought that the Export Wizard will add tables to the DBC. But it didn't work. So I am working with free tables now. I will try to use a DTS package, as you suggested in another message.

Thank you so much for your help.

BTW, the only way, so far, I was able to export these tables is by selecting dBase III driver. Which will lead me to the right destination. But I am just curious (or stubborn <g>) to find out the correct approach.
