Another option is to use the Microsoft ADO driver directly through the ADO components for Foxpro/dbase etc. The microsoft drivers aren't so bad. and it means that you always know who you can blame if it doesn't work. The Microsoft Drivers are bound to be the best drivers for using microsoft foxpro tables. Then you won't need the BDE at all, and you already have the TADO components.
