Hi,
Does anyone know how I could insert data into Visual FoxPro files under
Linux (can be in java/php or sth else). I couldn't find working example
of JDBC.
I have tried with:
- atinav (display strange characters)
- hxtt (error: java.sql.SQLException: ./KONTRAH.DBF isn't a database!)
- j-stels (error: java.sql.SQLException: [StelsDBF JDBC driver] Error
while reading data file 'KONTRAH.dbf': Can't open the file
'./KONTRAH.dbf' [XBaseJ] Wrong Version 48)

I think files are ok (comes from external program)

Can I do anything with Visual FoxPro files under Linux, or only under
Windows?

Marcin

I would say you probably need to connect to a .dbc

You can use it via php, perl and a coupla other things to handle VFP dbf
files.

Visual foxpro itself will run under Wine just fine.

Fox dos runs easily under dosemu, but of course can't hit the vfp tables.

Though I've never tried it, and have left the windows world for some years
now, I thought that there was a plain old-fashioned odbc driver for foxpro,
so you ought to be able to connect using PHP, no?
