Frederick,
Up to maxrows (for current versions 65536) you don't need to do anything. Just open a copy of dbf in excel (you'd lose memo).
If you want to automate excel then in Fox2x you need to use DDE* commands.

>>> Daniel Gramunt wrote a program back in 2000 that was (I believe) out in the download area. It was called copy2xls. But I could not find it in my quick search before telling you. I will look around for my copy, or maybe someone else can point you to it.
