Foxbase was the predecessor to FoxPro. I doubt anything knows how to
talk to Foxbase, it's so old. Now, if you really meant to say FoxPro,
there should be ODBC drivers around for FoxPro. At about version 3 or so
of FoxPro, Microsoft mangled the file format, so you'll have to know
whether it's prior to or later than version 3. If FoxPro ODBC drivers
won't work, try dBase III. The file format is almost identical. However,
the index and memo files are different.
