Hi,
I have my data all store in visual foxpro
database, if i want to change my database to SQL server,
how do i copy all the data in visual foxpro and save in
SQL Server Database? Thank you.We are currently taking a lot of our data from Foxpro to SQL Server. We are
only taking Data and Structure. We simply used the Foxpro drivers and
created a link to the Foxpro DB. Using DTS we sucked the Data in. The
usual things are worth looking out for like Dates but besides that we have
no real problems with it.

data and then create a remote view to that table on the FoxPro side. After
that you only need to APPEND FoxPro data to the view and issue a
TABLEUPDATE().
